Is there any way to sort categories in Outlook.  I can't understand why this
is not available as a sort field.  I use Outlook Contacts and not Business
contacts.  I have Outlook 2003 and XP.  Thanks.

Sorting is meaningless on a multivalued field like Categories. Group instead.

Thanks for the response....  I found a menu selection which allows me to
sort by category but I will  try to group also.

Sorting is meaningless on a multivalued field like Categories. Group
instead.
