Text Sender's Name "First,Last" rather than "Last, First"

[ryangruhn]

Is there a way to change the senders name in threaded text to "First,Last" rather than "Last,First." I really like MS Voice Command reading my texts but I want the senders name to be in the correct order. Is there a hack to do this?

i believe it has to do with how your contacts are in order. Try changing those to first last.

Any idea where the settings are for changing them within the contacts? It's not in the options menu.

In your contacts, click edit on the one you want changed. scroll to "File as" and change it to the first, last... That will change it.

I'm looking for another piece of software but I quickly found this one that should help do the change for all your contacts rather than individually. I haven't tried it and I'm still looking for the other one.

Edit: I found a solution for Outlook which I use as my primary contacts tool. Use the file as sorter add-in for outlook here http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/FileAs.html
