Question way to make Centro contacts list first name first?

hey all-

first time treo owner, first time poster on here. although i have been reading many of your posts in the past few weeks since i got my Centro. very helpful.

anyways, i was wondering if anyone knew a way to make it so my contacts (which are synced with Outlook) show up in my phone as First Last (as in John Smith) rather than Last, First (as in Smith, John). i have set it up in Outlook so that it appears First Last, but cannot figure out how to make it look like that on the phone itself.

this is a completely aesthetic thing, not so much useful, i'd simply rather have it show up a certain way.

thanks!

welcome to treonauts rosenbbd. We are glad you are here. Not sure I have the 750 with winmob 6 and it gives me the option on the device on how to save contacts . Check the preferences for contacts settings and maybe you can do it that way. I am out opf touch on palm os having gone back to winmob about a year and a half ago. And I understand about wanting it your way. No probs with that.

Unfortunately, the only ways to display contacts are "Last Name, First Name" and "Company, Last Name". I'm pretty sure there are some 3rd Party programs that are a little more flexible, and I seem to recall a program that will let you batch reorganize your contacts, but I can't remember their names off hand. I'll take a look and get back to you, if someone doesn't beat me to it first!
