CREATE GROUP CONTACTS LIST
 

I want to create a Group Contacts list in Outlook Express.

I have 12 email addresses, each in separate cells, in an Excel spreadsheet.

Does anyone know the quickest way to create a Group Contacts list with this
information.

Many thanks

With that few, I would just copy and paste individual e-mail addresses
into the group.

You can save the Excel as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) text file and
import that. To see the format that OE expects, export your current
address book into CSV format.

You can't control where OE imports. It always imports into the main
address book. So if you did the import, it would be best to import into
a new empty address book, then you'd still have to copy/paste that into
your group.

Export the Excel spreadsheet, after formatting it in this manner (each field
is delimited using a comma):

First Name,Last Name,Middle Name,Name,Nickname,E-mail Address,Home
Street,Home City,Home Postal Code,Home State,Home Country/Region,Home
Phone,Home Fax,Mobile Phone,Personal Web Page,Business Street,Business
City,Business Postal Code,Business State,Business Country/Region,Business
Web Page,Business Phone,Business Fax,Pager,Company,Job
Title,Department,Office Location,Notes

You can then import that info into your existing WAB file or create a
"standalone" wab file as many users do, following the ideas in this link:
