Outlook - Viewing Address list when selecting names as last, first 2

[Nate1749]

At work when I select who to send an e-mail to I click on the To: box and the names are Sorted by "Last, First"

However, at home (personal e-mail - pop3 account) I cannot figure out how to have it sorted like this. I changed the display to "Last, First"... But when I click To: the names are still "First Last".... I noticed that under "contacts" I can have them sorted by Last, First, but when writing an e-mail and I click TO:, it still sorts then my First Last.

I'm hoping that once I learn how to do this I will also be able to change the name to add more specification when I click TO:, such as
Smith, Mark - Personal
Smith, Mark - Work
Currently if someone has two e-mail address it just lists their names in the list and I can only see the address after I select them and close out the dialog box.

I'm sure both of these are something something easy that I am just not seeing, thanks.

Try TOOLS - SERVICES and then select the Outlook Address Book and click on PROPERTIES. There you should be able to select the order to display the name.

That seems to exactly what I need to change, however, I see that services is located under Tools in Outlook 2000 (what I have at work), but at home I have Outlook 2002 and can't seem to find services, any guesses where it might be now? Thanks!

With 2002 you would right click on Outlook icon, properties then select the e-mail accounts button, select View or change existing directories or address books and then click on the change button and there are your first, last options.

Thanks, just what I wanted!!! FYI - After seeing the screen it brings up I noticed that you can also get there by going to Tools -> E-mail accounts... Thanks again
