Default Display Windows Address Book in Last Name Order

Is this reversible? If the Address Book does not share Contacts with
Outlook, will Outllook get its information for addressing email messages from
the Contacts folder? If so, then perhaps that will solve the problem. But I
need to know if that is reversible if it does not. So how do I disable the
sharing between Windows Address Book and Outlook Contacts?

If you have no ViewSort by in Windows Address Book, it's due to having
Address Book configured to share contacts with Outlook. I can tell you how
to disable sharing but then you wouldn't have access to Address Book in
Outlook.

Your call.

Yes, I meant the WinXP Pro Address Book that is linked to the MS Office
Outlook 2003 Contacts. In the Outlook Contacts window, there is an
address book icon. When I click that or try to address an email, another
Address Book opens listing the names in firstname,lastname order (not the
same order as the Contacts address book).

My WinXP Pro version is 2002 with SP2. My MS Office Outlook 2003 version
is
11.6359.6360 SP1. There is no "Sort by" option in the View menu of
Outlook 2003 or in the Address Book window. Any more ideas as to how to
fix? Thanks.

Humm, and what is the version shown in Help, About?


I think the confusion here is that Dennis is using and asking
about Outlook 2003. Although he said "the WinXP Pro Address
Book," that's not what he meant, and that confused Frank.

Does anyone know how to get the WinXP Pro Address Book to
display
its entries
by LastName, Firstname order? I'm using the MS Office
Outlook 2003
Contacts
with WinXP Pro. The "File As" field in Outlook is set for
Lastname,Firstname
order, but the Windows Address Book still displays some
entries when
composing and email message in the firstname,lastname order
rather
than by lastname,firstname order.
