Post is too unclear. We have no idea what the difference is between "expand"
and "bring up the DL" from your description.
DL's from earlier versions will not work unless you migrated your data
correctly, which I suspect you did not.

No, none of them do. Most of them were created in 2003, but one was in
2007
w/Business Contacts.

For fun I created a a test DL (sitll no [+]), and it would expand if I
double clicked the DL name. However, wiht the other DLs, double clicking
brings up teh DL itself (as if I opened it in Contacts), leading me to
think
that deleting a name woudl permently remove it.

Do any of your DL's contain the +?
How and in what Outlook version did you created these DL's? Where do they
reside?

I am working in Outlook 2007. I want to send an email from a distibution
list, but exclude a couple of people from the list, but for soem
reason,
the
[+] icon is missing, so I cannot expand the list.
