"Contacts" are displayed incorrectly
When sending an email, I click "To" to get my contacts menu. I have set
"Contacts" to display "Last name, First name", which they do; But then on the "To" menu, they are listed "First name Last name". How do I make the "To" menu display consistent with the "Contacts" display? Thank you. |

The solution for each Outlook version has been posted here many times and Google Groups can help you find the prior posts. -- Brian Tillman |

Despite that, I will heed your advice and look to other posts.
To your comment: "...which you decided wasn't important enough to share." That's very nice. Thanks, Brian, for making a rookie feel welcomed. And thanks, also, for taking just enough of your time to drip sarcasm. "Brian Tillman" wrote: Stanfjord wrote: When sending an email, I click "To" to get my contacts menu.

Yeah, well, when you take your care to a mechanic, even when you were a newbie driver, did you hand him (her?) the keys and say, "It's broken. Fix it," and then just walk away? No. You knew even then that you had to give as accurate a description of the symptons as you could. In fact, one of the first things you probably told the mechanic was the model and year of your car. Why would it be any different here? -- Brian Tillman |

It seems to me that a simple "what version do you have?" response is not
asking too much. "Brian Tillman" wrote: Stanfjord wrote: Despite that, I will heed your advice and look to other posts. To your comment: "...which you decided wasn't important enough to share."
