How do I access the Distribution List I created?
I have Outlook 2007. Under my Main Contacts folder I have a folder I called
"Client List" Within that Client List I created a Distribution List (DL) called "Current Clients", which is the ONLY thing in the Client List Folder. I then successfully imported about 40 client addresses into that DL. So far, so good. When I go to send out and e-mail, and click on the "TO:" button, it does not give me an option to select that DL. In fact, it doesn't appear anywhere. When I scroll down my main contacts list, there are two bold highlighted "Client List" fields. When I select one of these, it gives me a very old list I had, which I have deleted, and the second one is empty. In any event, I can't seem to access the new "Current Clients" DL (which, by the way, shows up on the left side of my Contacts box as and "Outlook Data File" if that helps any. |

How do I access the Distribution List I created?
is the new folder enabled as an address book? Right click on it and choose
properties - look on the outlook address book tab. to remove the other list - open the address book (Ctrl+Shift+B) - go to its Tools menu and remove the address lists you don't want to use. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: You can access this newsgroup by visiting http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...s/default.mspx or point your newsreader to msnews.microsoft.com.

Right-click the "Client List" folder and choose Properties. Select the "Outlook Address Book" tab and make sure to check the box labeled "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book". -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
