Outlook 2003 contact business address country selection display is

[James_IT_Help]

Hi,


I am encountering address issue in the mailing/business address field
display order in Outlook 2003, please see an example as shown below:


If a address is maintained in this order,
Street: 5-2-1 Ginza
City: Chuo-ku
State/Province: Tokyo
ZIP/Postal code: 170-3293
country/Region: Japan


then the mailing/business address would display as:
170-3293
Tokyo
Chuo-ku
5-2-1 Ginza
Japan


But if the country is changed to USA for instance, where the rest has
remains unchanged, then Outlook would re-arrange the mailing/business address
order automatically as follows:


5-2-1 Ginza
Chuo-ku Tokyo 170-3293
USA


Question: How can I get Outlook to retain the desired format, in this case
we prefer the format used for USA addresses? This is affecting productivity
for mail merges since it would require lots of manual formatting per contact.

Thanks in advance for you help.
