Display Windows Address Book in Last Name Order

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.

There is no "Sort by" option on the "View" menu in WinXP.

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.

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.

The correct menu entry will be in your addressbook, not in a regular
Explorer window.

Who said anything about an Explorer window. I'm talking about MS Office
Outlook 2003 and WinXP Pro Address Book.
