Default No entries in addressbook under distribution list select membe

I have the same issue as Triffany with Outlook 2003 v 11.5608.5606. Any
thoughts?

make it an address book.

First thought would be to post what that issue is. You posted nothing and
quoted no posts. We can't read minds.

Default No entries in addressbook under distribution list select membe

Sorry about the lack of information...I wish to enable my Contacts to create
a Distribution List. I have Outlook 2003, and when I go to Select Members,
there are no names to choose and in the upper right it displays to Show
Members from my "Personal Distribution List." I have no such list and there
are no other options. When I go to my Contacts, I have only one list showing
called Contacts in the upper left hand corner. When right clicking on that
item and clicking on Properties, and selecting the Outlook Address Book tab,
the text box showing the name of the address book (Contacts) as well as the
check box above it to enable it are both dimmed out. How do I fix this?
Thanks

Mr. Valentine has not only NOT addressed the very common problem, he is rude.
