Default File As: First Name, Last Name - Making everything consistent

I already told you what to do. If you can't even open your accounts to
examine them you have a corrupt profile. Create a new one.

I don't know how I'm getting the message. That's why I'm asking. Perhaps
someone else can make more sense out of this. I've explained exactly
what's
happening.

That doesn't fit. Clarify exactly where you get that error message. When
you
go to ToolsE-mail AccountsView
or change existing directories or address books how can you get a
message
that the account doesn't exist if you haven't selected an account? If
your
entire profile is corrupt, just create a new one.

news
I apologize for 2 posts on this topic. My computer burped and I didn't
think
the post went through the first time.

I understand about changing Options for the new Contacts. I'm having a
problem with some of the ones already there.

"You have corrupted your Outlook Address Book. Remove any folders
currently
listed there (Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing
directories
or address books Outlook Address Book Change.). Add your Current
Contacts Folder to it."

Peggy: I can't get to this point because of the message "Specified
account
not found. It might have been deleted."

Thanks in advance.

Confusing post. Where is it you want to change the sort order? The
Contacts
Folder or the address book view? What you set in Tools Options
Preferences Contacts is only for new Contacts you create, not
existing
ones.

I'm in Outlook 2003 w/o Exchange. I prefer Contacts filed as First
Name,
Last
Name, and changed the Options to make this the default. However,
some
aren't
filed this way. I want everything to be consistent without changing
individually.

All names are in Contacts so this doesn't work: ToolsE-mail
AccountsView
or change existing directories or address booksNext. When I click
Next, a
message appears that says "Specified account not found. It might
have
been
deleted."

Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Thanks in Advance.
