Default Why is my Contact List not the same as my Address Book

In Outlook 2003, if I look at my CONTACT list, it is sorted by last name,
then first name. When I click TO to start a new email, it shows an
addressbook that is sorted by first name. How do I get these to be the same
book? And how do I get them both to sort last name, then first name?
Thanks,
Dave

Regardless of sorting, is the content the same between the two?

Click ToolsE-mail AccountsView or change existing directories or address
booksNext. Select "Outlook Address Book" and click Change. Set the sort
order there. Stop and restart Outlook.
