The Windows Address Book has nothing to do with Outlook unless you made a
very specific registry hack to force it to use Outlook instead of its own
data source. Did you do that?

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 an email message in the "firstname,lastname" order rather than
by
"lastname,firstname" order. This makes it difficult to retrieve contact
information when addressing email.
