Default exporting 'File As' from contacts

Does anyone know of a way to export the 'File As' field in the contacts
export? I've looked everywhere for it, and I don't find it to map when I'm
trying to export to excel.

its not an exportable field but if you make a view containing that field,
you can copy and paste into excel.
See http://www.slipstick.com/tutorials/copyto/excel.htm if you need help
doing this

Not a field included in the Outlook field map for import/export.

Depending on your requirements and size of list etc - your options are as
follows:

#1 - Create a view with the fields you need and copy 'n paste into Excel
#2 - Write your own code
#3 - A free utility from CodeTwo that should do the trick

#4 - One of the ContactGenie options (not free - all depends on your short
and long-term requirements as to what, if any, make sense for you)
CG Toolkit - http://www.contactgenie.com/toolkit_4_outlook.htm
