I have been using Outlook 2003's Organize function to color code messages from co-workers, bosses, etc. This worked fine until two of those people got married: Now, Outlook tries to put the *same* color on both of them, even though I explicitly tell it to Organize the husband with one color and the wife with another.

Apparently, it doesn't look past the common last name to the other Contact attributes - even first names.

Anyone else seen this? Have a fix?

I have not seen this myself.

I have not used the Organize function before but could you swap round the surnames for the first names? So that way their surnames will be in the first name field, and the surname in the first name field. That way there will be no common last name. Although it will read "Surname, Firstname" on all the appointments but at least it should distinguish between the two.

Alternativly can you add a full stop "." after one of the surnames?

Hope this helps.
