Guest anotherUser Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 (edited) In Outlook, my contacts' names are filed as-is, i.e. John Smith is just filed as "John Smith" instead of "Smith, John". However, when I create a new contact using my Pocket PC, they file the new contact as "Smith, John". So, I have to sync and fix it in Outlook. How can I make the contact app give me the first name first? I'm using Windows Mobile Version 5.0. Edited December 22, 2006 by anotherUser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Seraphic Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Use the attached cab - it puts a 'File As' option in the contact menu so you can change it to what you need :)fileascontacts.cab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there something even simpler, that makes Contacts start with "Firstname Lastname" in the first place so that you don't have to apply the "File As" to each new contact?
