I am having a similar issue.
We are using Outlook 2003. This particular user's contacts were imported
using a tab delimited text file.

When this user goes to address a new email, the full name field is
displaying first name, last name and the Display Name is also coming up first
name, last name.

Under Tools, Options, Contact Option, the Full name field is set to Last
First and the Display Name is set to Last, First. I can change the sorting
of those two options and nothing changes.

Is there a setting I am missing?

I would appreciate any help. Thanks

All of a sudden, when entering contact names, the first and last are reversed
in the end product. ie I enter John Doe and show Doe John in my Contact list
(no commas). Re-entries have no effect; delete and start over, likewise.
