MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2005get Outlook to display contact names with suffixes: M.D., D.D.S.,
If I enter 'John Smith, M.D.' in the Full Name box of a contact, the File As box gives the choices of 'John Smith, M. D.', or 'M. D. John Smith' (note that a space is added before the Ds). Dr. Smith is then listed under the letter 'M' in the Contacts list (address cards view). Address Cards view is supposed to list people alphabetically by last name. I haven't even tested the mail merge for such people. Please help. I have Office XP with updates installed. Did you try parsing the name elements correctly?

I already made a specific suggestion. Parse the name elements correctly. Put them in their designated fields, not the Full Name field.

I think what Russ is suggesting is that you click the Full Name button and place the name elements each in their own field. The symptoms indicate that they are not currently so configured.
