I have imported my contacts into Outlook 2010 and they all appear in the list but the sort order is weird.

Originally some were ordered as First Last name and others as Last, First name.

I editted each contact separately and changed the sort order to Last, First name but the order was still muddled.

I editted each contact indivulayy and cvhanged the sort order to First Last name and now they are all sorted correctly BUT NOT in the order i wish them to be.

Why is Outlook 2010 incapable of sorting contacts correctly?
