Default Import format for contacts when syncing with Mobile / Cell Phone

You have no control over the File As... field when you import.
Why doesn't your synch software support synching with Outlook?

I have a new mobile/cell phone and use the Sync software to back up my
contacts and callender entries to the computer.
Problem: I want the contacts to import into my contacts folder in the
format
I entered them into the phone which is format - Full Name or 'File as'
First
Name Last name but each time I Sync, it is importing all details in the
reverse or for example - using a company name like 'Watch 24' and
importing
it as 24,Watch.
~ Can I set the 'file as' order to default in my own specified order?
~ Alternately can I select all after they are imported and change the
format
for all name entries to the full name file as format?

Ive had the same issues importing form Excell spread sheets too?! Bloody
annoying!!
