Question

Is it possible to change the preference from "Last Name, First Name" to "First Name, Last Name" in the Address Book?

I would like to know this also. I've just been entering names in the opposite fields.

(I got tired of searching for my buddies - when they got married, their last names changed, forcing me to do searches.)

Tried that. It only has the following two options:
* Last Name, First Name
* Company, Last Name

There is not an option for "First Name, Last Name".

Try Address+ by Paul Taylor. It is an addressbook replacement that allows for 4 different sorts; Last,First/Company,Last/First,Last/and Company,First. In addition you can also manipulate groups of records in ways not possible with the built-in addressbook. It is available at palmgear for $8. Of course you can install the fully functional trial first. It gets great reviews from the PalmGuru as well as other sites. I have used it for about 6 months an love it.

I use Datebook+ and don't see where it allows a First Name, Last Name sort. My only options are the ones mentioned above by Danchez.

MarkEagle - Ice is nice!

Ummm... I guess Datebook+ has nothing to do with sorting addresses, does it???
