I seem to be having a problem the address book. When you create a ne
message and press on the "To:" button to quickly add an address.
Window called "Select Names" pops up with a list of all contacts wit
varius columns namly "Name", "Display Name" and "Email Address".
can't seem to find anywhere I can customize this display of columns.
would not only like to add "Company" as a colum but would also lik
outlook to order it by Company as first option.

anyone know where this can be done? I will really appreciate any inpu
to this, because it is driving me insane not being able to find th
option to do such a simple tas

First, that's not the "Personal Address Book", it's just the Address Book
(although it doesn't really contain any data - it's just a view of your
address book-enabled Contacts folders). The Personal Address Book service
that allowed Outlook to access PAB files has been obsolete for years.

It can't. The Address Book interface is not configurable.
