Default How to correct Contact Name presented in reverse order?

When I type in the First and Last name in the New Contact window and then
close it, the Full Name Window comes up but it shows the the following:
Title, Last Name, and then First Name, just the opposite of the way it was
type in. How can I correct this problem? This is a recent problem. I have
already did Repair in Outlook in the Control Panel. I'm using Office XP.
Thanks for your help.
