Default "File As" ignores settings

I currently have Outlook 2003 SP2 Professional Edition.

The Outlook Contact Options a "Full Name" order: Last First
: "File As" order: Last, First
FYI - [The Outlook Address Book settings a "File as (Smith, John)"]

When I enter a new contact (Bob Smith) my "File as" default is "Bob, Smith"
and my only other option is "Smith Bob" (Note there is no comma, though it
will allow me to add one and it does display properly).

However, when I export the contact list to an Excel speadsheet to see what
is really saved, I find:

First Name: Smith
Last Name: Bob

Is this a problem I can fix or is my version of Outlook corrupted?
