I just deleted an re-typed the 'M' at the start of the address and it has made no difference. It isn't just the first entry; did you notice that the A's and the C's are sorted in reverse alphabetical order 9and mingled a bit)? These are all addresses which have no name, just a company name. Entourage clearly know to use the company name as the name, but what criterion is being used in sorting them? All the contacts with no name, just a company name, appear before any of the contacts which do have a name, but these contacts (the ones with a name) sort alphabetically. It makes it really hard to find a company name-only contact in the address book when linking and, on occasion, I have given up.
