I can't reproduce this with Turba 2.3.x.

My point is that sorting works differently for "ALL" page and for 
lettered pages. In my case letterd pages are sorted by last name in 
lastfirst format and "ALL" page is sorted by first name. So it looks 
like fullnames can be split automatically into first name and last 
name but "ALL" page displays contacts in wrong order, sorting by first 
name while still displaying in lastfirst format.

Sorry, I have a hard time following you, but are you saying that 
sorting doesn't magically continue to work if you entering data into 
the wrong fields?

Hi

When lastname field contains first name and last name, firstname field 
is left blank, default sort order is set to lastname, name format is 
set to lastfirst, viewing letter pages works correct so "Sapien, Abe" 
goes to "S" page and "Banner, Bruce" goes to "B" page. The problem is 
while viewing "ALL" page, it looks like contacts are sorted by 
"firstlast" so my "ALL" page looks like:

"Sapien, Abe"

"Banner, Bruce"

"Kent, Clark"

It's working fine, when you're using both firstname and lastname 
fields, but not when only lastname field.



Is this intended behavior? Shouldn't it be more consistent, so letter 
pages work the same way as "ALL" page.



thanks
