Default File As fields are backward

In my settings the default full name is First Middle Last but when I type
into the Full Name field it puts my first entry (which would normally be
first name) as the last name and my second entry as the first name -
I have actually gone into my forms, created a new form and included the
first name and last name fields. As I am typing into the Full Name field it
is placing them backwards (in the wrong fields).

Does anything there explain the behavior you are seeing?

Thank you - I clicked it - it does pull up the box for title, first,
middle,
last, etc. but it puts the first name in the last name box and vice versa.
I have Office/Outlook 2007 and have tried repairing it and reloading it.
Thank you for not making this newbie feel like an idiot.

When I add a contact - firstname lastname - my File As field thinks the
first
name is the last name. If I go to the File As field, it shows the
comma
after the first name (as if it were the last name - ie - suzanne,
brady)
Can someone help me change this?
