Display Contacst by last,first name

I am in process of moving from Outlook97 to Outlook2002.
I have imported my contacts into Outlook2002 and set them
all to 'File As' last, first name order. This is fine in
the Contacts folder view.
However, when I view my contacts in address book mode
they show as first, last name order.
In Outlook97 I could click on the header 'Name' in
address book and it toggled the order in which the names
were displayed. Nothing happens in Outlook2002 !

How can I view my address book in last, first name order ?

Thanks for any assistance.

Outlook 97 never had the option to toggle sorting within the Outlook Address
Book. Only IMO mode had that because it used the Windows Address Book.
In Outlook 2002:
Go to Tools > E-mail accounts > View or change existing directories or
address books > Outlook Address Book > Change. > Set your sort order there

Do you know how to sort by last, first name order in
Outlook 2000? Thanks so much!
