Converting older "File As" Last, First contacts to new Default "File As" (First Last) order, all at once?
Hi,
I have 500+ contacts, that were originally created with "File As" being Last, First. My new "File As" order is First Last. Is there a any way to select all my existing contacts and convert the older Last, First contacts to the new "File As", without going through them all one_by_one and doing it manually? TIA.

Hello Bill,
you can use the Tool "ChangeNames" (http://www.marchert.de/redirect.php?...on=software_cn) to change the order automatically.

Microsoft has posted some code that can do that:
