I have a Contacts list in Outlook 2003.
I can open each contact and change the "file as " option.
Is there a way to execute that command accross all of my contacts so that I
don't have to open each one individually and make the change?
Thank you

Thank you that site looks great.
Does this site have an English version?

You can also click tools, options, mail set up, email accounts, view/change
existing directories or address books, change and click the radio button for
last name first!

No, you can`t. This will only change the view in the address book but
not change the field "File As".
