MORE INFORMATION

If you click to select the Include Headings for Each Letter check box in the Page Setup for Contacts, a heading separates each group of contacts. Each of these headers prints correctly until the letter "N" (without quotation marks). Once the letter N is reached, all remaining contacts are grouped under the letter N. The one exception is when the last name of your contact begins with a lower case 'En-Yeh' character (the En-Yeh character appears as an "n" (without quotation marks) with a tilde (~) over it. The ASCII value is 164). The contacts that begin with a lower case 'En-Yeh' are grouped under the letter "Z" (without quotation marks). If the 'En-Yeh' is upper case, it is grouped under the letter N.
