Contacts sort order "Last, First" in Custom Install Wizard (OL2003)

M

Mario Billiani

Does anyone knows where can I set the sort order of contacts in Outlook
2003? I can't find these option so always the contacts in new profiles are
in "First, Last" order.
A workaround via ops-file won't work also.
Any hints?

Thanks, in advance.

With Outlook open,
Select the tools menu
Select E-Mail Accounts
Select View or change existing directories or address Books
Select the "Next" Button
Select your address book from the list, Outlooks address book is titled
Outlook Address Book
Select the "change" button
on the bottom of the pop up window that opens up you will see a choice on
sort order,
Select File as (Smith, John)
Select the close button
Select the Finish Button
Close and restart Outlook and the address book will not be set to sore in
Last name first order.

This is how it works in Outlook 2002, I would think it is the same in 2003.

Let me know if it works for you

The OP is asking how to set this within the Custom Installation Wizard - not
in the program itself.

To the OP, let me play around with the CIW and see if it can be done.
