Contacts in a Distribution List
Is there a way to create contacts or copy information
from a distribution list where the contacts have been created by using the "Add New" button and not "Select Members", in Outlook 2002. I want to send a personalised email to those contacts by using the Mail Merge to email function in Word. However, in the current format, the individual contacts do not show up. Many thanks ELissa |

Contacts in a Distribution List
Mail merges cannot use DL's. You would have to have the DL members as
Contacts to do a mail merge. Outlook provides no utility to convert DL members to Contacts. In theory, you should be able to save your DL as an RTF file, then use Word to convert it to a Tab or Comma delimited file. Then you could import that file into Outlook to create Contacts. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Elissa" wrote in message ...
