Russ,
Again I apologize for incomplete information.
On my old PC, I had set up as last name first. Also, in the e-mail address
book, they displayed the same way. When I moved the pst file from old to new,
the contact names are filed last name first. I went into
tools-options-contact options after I noticed that adrdess book was sorted
first name first and changed to last name first. This change had no effect on
the address book.

So what sort order did you choose? Go to Tools > Account Settings > Address

I'm sorry, I did not actually "export" the file. It was "moved" from one
PC
to the other over our network. I'm using Outlook 2007. The name sorting is
correct in Contacts; they show up differently when accessing the address
book
in email.
Thanks!

You never use export to transfer Outlook data if you want it to remain
intact.
Impossible to know what got changed. Hopefully, the problem is limited to
the sorting method you have chosen for the Outlook Address Book. Tell us
what that is and include your Outlook version so we can attempt an answer
to
your question.

I recently exported my pst file to a new PC. My contacts show up in my
new
"Contacts", last name first. However when sending an e-mail, and
selecting
recipients the address book window has many of the names the filed by
first
name.
Is there a way to change this?
Thanks!
Dale
