(Sorry about jumping in late here.Just started back with The Bat) and this has been my biggest frustration, so far - getting address book names to display the way I need them. I've imported a couple hundred addresses and all of them display some crazy way. That may be due, in part, to the import field matches. Nonetheless, right now the only thing I can do is to open each one and change the "display name as" property from default, "user defined" to last, first, middle. There should (and probly is) a better way and I'm sure someone's got a kludge or hack that will do it. It would also be nice if the "new contact" "display name as" defaulted to whatever I wanted. Suggestions welcome. Experience? Strength?
