Outlook-help

[Badevad]

When I import a list of contacts into outlook from Excel, or any other file type, the preference that I specified in options for "Select the Default setting for how to file new contacts" is ignored. I set "Company (Last, First) as my default "file as" order, but contacts import as "Last name, First name." I am importing hundreds of contacts and I don't want to have to go in and change them all by hand. Is there a way to either change them all at once or to import them "Company (Last, First)?"
