1. When you are in the view, click Ctrl-F to bring up a Find dialog box. This will allow you to search for whatever you see in the view.
2. Create a personal view based on the view you see and separate the first name and last name into two columns that are sortable. Then you can click the header of the view and type in the name.
3. Full text index the database and use the search bar to search for the name. You can even specify the field you want by using syntax such as [Firstname] = "value" or FIELD Firstname = "value" in the search bar.
Of all of these, I use the first method the most when a view is not sorted or categorized as I need it.

Nice to see more stuff about Lotus Notes. But, all graghics should be embedded directly in the article, so that they can be seen directly and printed inline. That is what users need and should have in this electronic computer age. Techrepublic needs to buy and use any of the commonly available applications to do same, or to have a graphics designer setup all articles.
The very requirement for "clicking to view images" all but effectively destroys the value of the article. Its lack of any depth finishes the job... Tech Republic's credibility to provide useful / meaningful content is ONLY diluted with low-depth content such as this! ;^( And, I _really_ want for TR to succeed!
The local address book can be setup to show firstname, lastname order: select the Tools button, Preferences then select the radio button 'Firstname Lastname'
OR
Simply do a standard Windows find (ctrl-f) and enter the name required.
OR
Do a Search on the name required.

This article "did not" tell the user that Notes "always" defaults to the Personal Address Book first. And then if the name isn't found there, searches the Corporate address book(s). This is always interfering with our Notes users. Notes "needs" to have a way to ask where to search first or to set up a search order for multiple address books. Our organization has five, count them, five corparate address books! So much for NOtes' power of the Address Book! Give me Outlook any day!! It has Contacts that are just as powerful!
errr...can you not list the search order of your corporate address books in the Directory Assistance document for them..?
only five ???
for policy reasons we were asked to have one addressbook per department + one general + one for external agents whom everybody has to have access to
combining this with the personal addressbooks I find this an unbelievably redundant input of same data wich as a part time DBA sounds a horror story to me
I'm still looking for a performant way to have all adresses in one DBMS and would like to forbid all other lists/personal addressbooks by policy
I can set this up via web interface or any other but to this date not yet natively integrated with Domino
If anyone heard about or went themselves down this road I'm all ears
grtz

Big networked organisation. Lotus Notes 5 Vs?
Anyway all staff have a personal address book and access to the corporate one in their workspace.
It's a big deal to educate everybody to continually update their personal address books to match the corporate one.
Inevitably they forget to update their personal address book with the corporate one.
Is there a better (automatic??) way to handle this one from the divisional location? (I am a local IT office support person and would like to know if there is a better way to handle this)
