Default Outlook Contacts Index

In my Outlook Contacts folder, I need to change the index (on the right side
of the screen). It currently displays AB; CD; EF; etc. How can I change it so
that each letter displays separately, so when I click on D it goes to all
entries beginning with D and not those with a C?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Default Outlook Contacts Index

The letters are the index on the right side of the Contacts screen. They are
not a particular field. If you click on the letter it will take you to the
first contact that starts with the letter. Currently it displays as 2 letters
grouped together and I need it to be individual letters.

Ah. In Outlook 2007 it's just a single letter in each box. What version are
you using?

Outlook adjusts the index so that the whole alphabet is always on-
screen. It will only show separate letters if they would all fit on-
screen at the same time. So, you need to maximise the Outlook windows
to fill the screen. If that doesn't work, you'll need a bigger screen.
