contacts listed in wrong format in Outlook's "Select names" box.
I am running Outlook 2000 SP3 on Win XP Pro SP3 and create a new contact.
In the "File as:" field, the format
Companyname - Firstname Lastname
is not an option, so I manually type Companyname - Firstname Lastname in that field. (See attachment c1.jpg.
When I compose a new email and click the "To" button I see the "Select Names" box. However, contacts are listed as
Firstname Lastname (email address)
How do I get my contact to list as
Companyname - Firstname Lastname
in the "Select Names" box?

Such File As orders in Outlook 2000 are quite simple.
However, there is a VBA that you could use:
