Why are the names in the Global Address List in order of First_Name Last_Name?
Names are in order of First_Name (or Friendly_Name) Last_Name so that when your e-mail displays who a message is “from”, it shows the sender’s name in that order instead of listing it from Last_Name, First_Name. To easily locate a name in Outlook, use the Check Names feature: while in the To field in a new message, enter part of the person’s first or last name, select the Tools menu, and click Check Names (or click the Check Names icon in the toolbar); or while viewing the Global Address List in the Address Book window, use the Find option: select the Tools menu, and click Find (or click the Find Items icon in the toolbar). Many additional helpful facts on searching are available by selecting the Help menu and clicking Microsoft Office Outlook Help from within Outlook.
