maintaining contact group/sort order
generally i like to have contacts displayed grouped in categories, sorted by
first name. i can go into customize and set this up. occasionally i want to sort the whole folder by first name and then i click on the full name column. the problem is that when i want to go back to the category grouping, i right click on column headingsarrange by categories. then i have to go back to customize to get the first name sort order. how can i switch back to category grouping and maintain the first name sort? -- jeffrey |

You did not post your Outlook version. It matters.

I see. Outlook 2003 did change the way it sorts within categories. Use the
Detailed or Simple List view, show the columns you want to see (field chooser), click the column (eg Last Name) you want to sort by, THEN use the group by box to group by Category. That should have alphabetical as well as the grouping. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "jeffrey" wrote in message ... i was indicating that i am using outlook 2003, ol03 -- jeffrey "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...
