Find a Contact doesn't pick up company names

Hi,

Outlook 2002, SP3. If I search for a company by typing its name into the
'Find a Contact' bar it isn't found unless the contact entry has something
entered for a person's name also. E.g. Woolworths, filed as Woolworths, is
not found, but Woolworths filed, as John Smith but with Woolworths in the
Company field is found. Is there any way to set Outlook to find companies on
their own through the 'Find a Contact' bar (I know it can be done via the
'Look for' bar or advanced search).

Many thanks,

Jez
 
My experience is that Outlook searches the Company field only if it finds no
match in the File As or Subject. You should be able to use Find or Advanced
Find, though, to search for the company.
