Name entry

Outlook952
In Outlook 2000 I was used to entering the name in natural order (John Smith).

The program would then propose a FileAs as "Smith, John." Now with 2003 it only

proposes "John, Smith" or "Smith John." A peep into the name fields shows that

it has interpreted John to be the last name and Smith to be the first. I'm sure

there is an option somewhere to fix this but I can't find it

Re:Name entry

You forgot to mention where you are trying to enter these names. That would

be nice to know.

What did you set for your Contacts options in Tools>Options>Preferences?
