Does anyone know how to put a contact in that appears as a regular First Last name sequence, i.e. Joe Smith. Whenever I put a name in or business like a pizza place it inserts the common and inverts the name, i.e Joe Smith becomes Smith, Joe. I like my contacts to be first and last name because they then fit in with my friends who only have nicknames in my contacts. My unofficial fix is to put the names in backwards so they then appear Joe, Smith. (I know it's genius, but there has to be something better

) So, simply put how do I get them to say Joe Smith without the comma?

Businesses you should list under the field "Company" so that they don't insert a comma. You could do that with contacts as well....or for those with nicknames you could just put the entire name under Last name.

The only way I know how to do it is to start synching your contacts with Outlook because it has the option to sort them that way..

I heard there may be a mod that does that but I don't know where it is...

When I do that, the don't show up on my contacts list when I go to call.

Make sure you have the filter set appropriately and the view to show all of contacts?
