First, please move the contacts from public folder into temp contact folder of a mailbox Export the contacts as CSV files Re-import the contacts and in the "map custom fields" map "first name" to "last name" and "last name" to "first name" Import the CSV file Then, please move the contacts from temp contact folder back to public folder Additional Resources: Import contacts from Excel to Outlook How to display the Contacts list in the last name, first name format in Outlook 2007 and in Outlook 2003 James Luo TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
