What do I mean by Outlook version? OK. Pick from the following List:
Outlook 97 Outlook 98 IMO Outlook 98 Corp/Workgroup Outlook 2000 IMO Outlook 2000 Corp/Workgroup Outlook 2002 Outlook 2003 Outlook 2007 Those are the 8 versions of Outlook in use. None is the same as the others. That's why it matters. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] wrote in message ups.com...

I suspect that if you examine the sort order field you specified for a
Contact that does not appear to sort correctly, you will be able to solve your problem.
