Select Names list

When I open the Select Names list from the New Message box it displays the
name as First Last, instead of Last, First as set in Contacts. This
information is coming from the Subject field of the All Mail Fields in the
Properties box. How do I get the Select Names to display and sort by the
name field from Contacts?

Any help appreciated,

Bob Weeden
 
Go to Control Panel-> Mail-> E-mail Accounts-> View or change existing
directories or address books-> select Outlook Address Book-> Change.

At the bottom you can set the way the names are sorted.
