When I create a contact or modify the properties of a contact within Outlook,
and the field "Display As" is by last name, first name, and I save it in
Outlook XP, it ignores the display preference and places it in my address
book/contact list alphabetized by first name. How do I get Outlook XP to
display all contacts by last name, first name? Thanks.
