MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / January 2007How do I sorting contacts in Outlook by position
How do I sorting contacts in Outlook by position where I determine rank based on title. Like you can create a custom sort order of a list in Excel. First up, turn on the Advanced Toolbar. Now change the Contacts folder View to Phone List. You have a basic table in front of you now. Use the Field Chooser to add the Field Title or Profession (wherever you have entered the data you want to sort by) now Sort that column by clicking the column header. You can take this a step further and group by that Field as well. Use the Group By Box (beside the Current View Window). To email a whole group, grab its heading and drag to the Outbox. I hope this helps you at least a little bit! AND remember to post your version next time.

We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it.

Like you can create a custom sort order of a list in Excel. Judy, Thank you for your reply, however, it is still an alpha sort. As metioned in my originaL post, I want to sort my a custum ranking not alpha i.e. CEO 1 EVP 2 SVP 3 and so on. As can be done in Excel. > First up, turn on the Advanced Toolbar. > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > > based > > on title.

SignatureBrian Tillman Thanks Brian but I need an automated way of do it and I don't want to charge the original contents of the "Job Title" field. Has anyone used field formulas to do something similar? > > Judy, > > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Make your Field values read "1 CEO", "2 "EVP", and so on. |
