Membership in a Distribution List should be identified in Contact
Previous versions of Outlook provided info on membership in a distribution
list for each contact. I have 800 - 1000 contacts and approx 20 distribution lists. Some of these lists contain 200 contacts, or more. Managing this is impossible with the current version of Outlook (2003). ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Not sure about 2002, but in XP, 2000 and previous versions it was at the bottom of the page of the "Notes" Tab.

Are you referring to the Contacts controls? Those can link only to other contacts, not to DLs.

My Contacts pages show categories but not distribution lists. Could this be
what you are thinking of? BTW, XP is 2002. It would be a good thing if the distribution list would be an automatic link in the Contacts field, but it is not, and distribution lists can't be included as contacts in that field AFAIK. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
