Viewing the Address Book List
You can select the manner in which the names are displayed in the
Address Book window. Many people will want their list to be last name
first, first name last. To sort the list in this manner, select
options from the Tools menu. When the Addressing dialog box appears,
click Properties. In the Properties dialog box, select whether you
wish the names to be displayed by first name or last name. Click OK.
Finding Names in the Address List
As time goes by, you may find that the list of names in your
address book grows to a considerable size. Finding names in the book
may become difficult. To search your address book, click on the Find
icon on the toolbar. It is the one that looks like an open book with a
magnifying glass. When the Find dialog box appears, enter the name
that you wish to locate. The name does not need to be complete. For
example, you may remember the persons first name but not their last.
Enter their first name and click OK. The Address Book will display all
the entries that have that first name. To return to the complete
Address Book list, click on the arrow to the right of the text box
identified as Show Names from the: and select the Personal Address
Book as shown in Figure 8-12.
