Default Display of Contact Names when selecting one for email

When creating an email message, when I click on the To button a list of my
contacts opens so that I can select a contact. In Outlook 2003 the names
appeared sorted by File As Names but in 2007 the contact names are displayed
by Name starting with and sorted by either initials or first name.

Is it possible to change the settings so that the list is displayed by File
As names?

The same as always.
Go to Tools Account Settings Address Book Tab Outlook Address Book
Change... Set sort order there
