Default How can I copy Distribution List into Word or Excel?

Sue, thanks for your help. I would have no problem saving the DL as a "txt"
file - IF ONLY I knew how to access the DL. After searching (again), I can't
find a method of accessing the DL in a way that would enable me to save it as
a text file. I won't mind you making me "red-faced" by pointing out that
what you're suggesting "should be obvious". :-). "Many thanks" if you can
point me in the right direction with more specifics.

I'm using Outlook 2003 SP2. I have a large Distribution List, the contents
of which I need to share within our branch.

It would make perfect sense to be able to copy/paste this information into
Excel and/or Word; however this does NOT seem possible.

Is there "any" way to transfer this information - i.e. if not through some
"hidden" method of copy/paste, then perhaps an export/import method, or
perhaps through VBA?

Many thanks for any help offered.

If a solution is offered and if this is monitored by Microsoft staff, might
I suggest that this information should be made known to current users - i.e.
more prominently.

If a solution is NOT offered, might I suggest that Microsoft staff will want
to address this for a future release.

Thanks again.
