SYMPTOMS
When viewing the Journal folder with the Entry List view, if you click the Contact column header to sort the journal entries by Contact, you receive the following message:

You cannot sort by this field.



RESOLUTION
You can work around this problem by grouping the view by contact instead of sorting by contact. Right-click the Contacts column header, and then click Group by this field.

To create a custom view grouped by contact:
 * 1) On the View menu, point to Current View, and then click Define Views.
 * 2) Click New.
 * 3) In the Name of new view box, type Group by Contacts . In the Type of view list, click Table, and then click OK.
 * 4) Click Group By, and in the Group items by list, click Contact.
 * 5) Click OK, OK, and Close.
