OOo2 seems to arrange bizcard info in the wizard as follows:

FirstName LastName Initials
Street
Zip City
Country State
Title Profession
Phone Mobile
Fax
Homepage Email


Highly unlearned.  The most natural course for me is:

LastName FirstName Initials
Title Profession
Street
City State Zip
Country
Phone Fax Cell
Email Homepage

Look at some job or credit card applications, or forms online.  E-bay for 
example:

FirstName LastName
Street
City
State Zip Country
Phone Phone2
DateOfBirth
Email

Yes they have the name reversed from what I put.  In microcomputer applications
II, we did a lot of data entry into MS Access; last name always came first, due
to sort order.  It makes more sense for what you're sorting by to be first,
typically last name.  At any rate, I'm not a UI design expert, so find out for
yourself.  Look at other programs, like MS Office or AbiWord.

At any rate, a lot of things like applications, registration forms, and the like
order this kind of information in a standard way.  It's not always on the same
lines; but top to bottom, left to right, following the tab stops, it comes out
to be the same ordered list (plus or minus a few elements, but typically no
order changes are made).  Sometimes it's good to get in file like everyone else.
