How do I sort addresses in Outlook 2003
MS outlook 2003 only sorts them by first name rather than having a column for
first name and one for last name. Not very good programming on MS's part.

View/Change Existing address books Click Next Highlight Outlook Address Book Click Change MS 2003 does not have an "accounts" option under "tools" but I did find Email Accounts. I did change the sort sequence to "last, first" but MS Outlook still sorts everything by first name. How do I change the Global Address book as well? What steps need to be taken to sort this by last name also? "Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: You can sort by First name or File As name in the Outlook Address Book.

Not sure about the GAL. Also, what's in the File As field in your contacts?

How do I sort addresses in Outlook 2003
File as (Smith, John). It was first last until I changed it after your
last email to me. I appreciate your help on this. It is very difficult to find business contact that I know by last name only. "Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Not sure about the GAL.

But in all your contacts is the File As set to Last, First? That field can
have a multitude of values so it might be causing an issue. "PaulS" wrote in message news  File as (Smith, John). It was first last until I changed it after your last email to me. I appreciate your help on this. It is very difficult to find business contact that I know by last name only.

I usually use "last name, first name" but sometimes I file by "company name"
then "last, first name." "Vince Averello [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: But in all your contacts is the File As set to Last, First? That field can have a multitude of values so it might be causing an issue.

How do I sort addresses in Outlook 2003
I have MS OL 2003 11.8010.8028 SP2. Am I up-to-date? Is there a way for me
to send an attachement with my response to you so you can see what I am talking about? Thanks again for your help.
