distribution list field in outlook contact address card view
arrange byI want to know how to be able to add the field "distribution list"
to my contacts address card so that whenever I view the contact I can see what distribution list that they are assigned to...I am hoping that this will allow me to also view them in category view where by I added the field "distribution list" and see if Outlook will sort all the contacts by this after I have assigned them to the distribution list in the distribution list dialog box by "selecting members" I had tried assigning these contacts by categories but they really appropriately need to be on distribution lists..... HELP! if you can give me any other hints....Here is what I have tried so far: I went to "view" arrange bythen current view while in contacts folder, customize view...fieldsselect from "All distribution lists" click distribution listADD then I move it up to fall after file as..but when I open a contact afterwards I don't see it listed there on the contact address card..... Thanks for your help! Julie |

No can do. Membership in a DL is not a property of the Contact.
