Contact List Custom View

Question

What I would like to do is modify the Full Name column so it is linked to the item instead of the Last Name column.
This is the column in SharePoint view settings "Last Name (linked to item)"
In sharepoint I was able to chnage the (linket to item with edit menu) by editing the code for FullName to this: <FieldRef Name="FullName" ListItemMenu="TRUE"/>
However the linked to item is different, <FieldRef Name="LinkTitleNoMenu"/>, and so I can't simply add an additional value to the "FullName" column code.
Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks,
John

As I understand that you want to change context menu to different column. FOr that be low blog will be helpful for you. It note down the steps: SharePoint
2010 - Add "Show List Item Menu" and "Show Link to Item" to a custom column
Few
Points form that blog
create a custom view say "Custom Test View 1" and open in SPD
Once you are in edit mode, switch your view to Code and click on Advanced Mode icon from ribbon menu. Now you are ready to change the default behavior.
First, locate ViewFields tag in the code. You will see something like shown below:
Change FieldRef as shown below. What I did was to add LinkToItem and ListItemMenuattributes to Full Name field and rename Title field
name from LinkTitle to Title.
