I just copied my contact folder from my lap top to my desk top PC. Both have
Outlook 2002. I have the names sorted last name first in my laptop. When
sending a new e-mail, I select a name from the contact list, sorted in the
same order. But, when I imported the same file to my desk top PC, the names
are still sorted correctly (last name first) in Contacts but, when sending a
new e-mail the names seem to have been resorted first name first. Upon
reopening the contact list, everything is still sorted as I had intended.

How can I get these 2 lists in sync?

Thanks!

You did not clarify the view you need sorted.
Assuming you meant the Outlook Address Book, did you configure its sort
order?
If not, do so:
Go to Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or
address books > Outlook Address Book > Change. > Set your sort order there
 
Thanks Russ, it worked!
