Address Book Format vs Contacts
Having upgraded Office 2000 to 2007 Beta 2, and now using Outlook 2007, am
wondering why address book can not be sorted by last name first? Also, why is it not in contact format?

Address Book Format vs Contacts
Nothing has changed in Outlook 2007. You probably just haven't configured
the Outlook Address Book yet. It's the same as all other recent versions. Your statement that it is "not in Contact format makes no sense. Explain what you mean. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "dstubb" wrote in message ...

Address Book Format vs Contacts
When I previously opened the Outlook 2000's address book, I would get a
"window" which opened up with the heading of "Address Book". Under this heading I had the normal: File; Edit; Tools & Help. Also, under all this then I had on the left column the heading "Contacts", in the right column I then had "Name (last name first),; E-mail address; Business phone & Home Phone". This window also had "New; Properties; Delete; Find People; Print & Action". Thus my concerns, why doesn't it appear as the old 2000 address book?

Address Book Format vs Contacts
It does. You probably weren't using the Outlook Address Book before if you
were using IMO mode of Outlook 2000. Were you? In all current versions of the Outlook Address Book, go to Tools E-mail accounts View or change existing directories or address books Outlook Address Book Change. Set your sort order there -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "dstubb" wrote in message ...

Address Book Format vs Contacts
Thanks - I now have my listees within my address book in last name format,
BUT! There is duplications of some names, as if there were two phone numbers listed in the contact box for an individual or a secondary e-mail listing, the name becomes shown again. It is not at all like my 2000 address book. Your inquiry about IMO mode - I'm not familiar with that acronym/abbreviation. Can you elaborate more, please, and how do I correct all the reduntancy as is now showing in my address book? "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: It does.

Address Book Format vs Contacts
That's not a duplication at all. The Outlook Address Book is designed to
show all electronic addresses a Contact has It's much more useful than showing only one. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "dstubb" wrote in message ...

Address Book Format vs Contacts
I guess my address book then was as you state, IMO. I really liked using
that format as my e-mails were addressed to an individual, not an individual plus their internet address as well. How can I utilize that format with Outlook 2007?

That is the format most users prefer. If you want to change it back the
familiar name only, then change the Display As field for each Contact. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "dstubb" wrote in message ... I guess my address book then was as you state, IMO.
