Default Global "File As" / Achieving view in contact headers ??

I like to display my contacts as below

Last Name, First Name
Company

in the Address Card view. Is there a way to apply a "File As" view
globally across all my contacts ? It is a tedious process to hit each
individually when I have over 2000 contacts.

Thanks,
G

Russ/Gerry,

I have recently finished Sperry Software's newest add-in, Contact Sort
Order. It resolves this (very frequently reported) problem, and is free.
See http://www.SperrySoftware.com/Outloo...Sort-Order.asp.

Hope this helps!
