Default word file with names

Outlook 2003;
Is there a way to get a list of names/email addresses that are separated by
semi-colons into a new Outlook distribution list?

I tried changing the semi-colons to tabs and saving it as tab delim.
(Windows) but it won't import.

It's not my file but I'm trying to help someone.

Thanks

Suzan

You cannot import into a DL. You can only import into a Contacts Folder.

Actually, that was what I wanted to do; I just wrote it incorrectly.

Then save it as a CSV file. You can import that into Outlook.
