How do I change "file as" format for all contacts in a folder?
In Outlook, I want to change the "file as" format for all existing contacts
in my contacts folder. I want to use "company (last name, first name)" for all contacts. I also want that format to be the default format for all contact entries made or imported from another program. I am using Office 2003. Can you help? Thanks

How do I change "file as" format for all contacts in a folder?
Hmm have tried this several times. Getting failiure when running as
described - on line 71! Does the "skript" have to be put in, in the EXACT same way / prportions as they are written in the skript? Everey time it does not work, and one find the line that one has to look for an discreprancy - and then try to change this I find that I have to start ALL over agaian. Maybe I'm thick headed - that just might be the case!! - but; is there no way to edit the skript so that one does ot have to make the buttons new everey time? Also: 5d - does not seem to be the same her - I'm getting propted, but the question seems to be far more longer, and I relly do not understand it ( the thick head thing again!), but I do get asked afterwards if i want to replace the file (because i keep the same name and just replace the one that did not work) I do have around 700 contact that are all differently "saved as" and this does NOT work good with my new Ipaq! pls help! Running outlook 2002 (10.6515.6735) SP3 - win XP home. -- ANY help that works on this subject will do!
