Default Creating a Distribution List in OUTLOOK 2007

Diane,

Your method still requires adding addresses ONE-BY-ONE and hence is not
applicable to a long list.
I asked for a method to create a Distribution List of all addresses with a
certain feature, e.g., same domain name.

Create a custom view to filter the view so only the contacts you want to use
are visible. Remove all field but the email address - copy (select 1
address, Ctrl+A, C) and paste into the members field.
See http://www.slipstick.com/tutorials/create/dl.asp - the second set of
steps to create the DL.

Hello,

Is there a way to create a DISTRIBUTION LIST in OUTLOOK 2007 that contains
contacts with a specific feature WITHOUT adding members one by one?

E.g., I need a distribution list of all contacts whose e-mail address is
in
a particular domain.

The following sequence DOES NOT work:

CONTACTS --- ACTIONS --- NEW DISTRIBUTION LIST --- SELECT MEMBERS ----
SEARCH (MORE COLUMNS)

When I entered the domain name in the search window, I got no results.
Thus,
OUTLOOK did not search the entries of the e-mail addresses.

Thank you for your help.

ATK
