I want to add members in my address book to a new distribution list. However,
when selecting members, outlook takes me to global address book. The concept
behind a global address book is great, BUT all I want to do is to select from
the list of contacts in my outlook addressbook. Also, I want the distribution
list to be kept local on my pc.

So, question is, how do I make the contacts in my addressbook (or the
addressbook in my PC) visible? Also, the "show names from the" drop down list
doesn't include my addressbook.

I know that the other solution is to just bite it. Once the list is made, I
won't have to do it again. .. Well BOY! You can say that again for each time
I created one (probably over 30).

thx in advance
