I really need some help.
We use the 2002 version and have since 2002. My boss has been complaining about his contact all of the sudden not being there anymore. He advised me today that some of his contacts are listed into different distribution lists that he has set up in outlook. He was copying a contact and pasted it into another distribution list and when he went back the the original distribution list the contact was no longer available for him. Sometimes ehen he copies a contact into a folder or someone ele's distribution list the contact will disappear all together. Does anyone know why or what he could be doing to cause this. I appreciate any help that anyone can give. Thanks |

Your post makes no sense to us. We have no idea what your boss is doing.
Copying and pasting are never involved in the creation of a DL. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Trios" wrote in message ... I really need some help. We use the 2002 version and have since 2002.

The DL already exists.
Let me start over. My boss set's up a contact record using his outlook sets up a catagory ie: holiday card he than sets up another contact and sets a category of Personal Contact. He now decides that he wants to add the peronal contact into the holiday card category as well. nevermind I just figured out my own question I believe. Instead of him selected mulitple categories for one contact entry he is dragging or copying and pasting which is making the contact disappear. I thank you for listening to this but I guess I just needed to talk it out sort of speak. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Your post makes no sense to us.

That's what we're here for. He can set a Contact to have as many Categories
as he wants, and then use the Category in lieu of a DL. It's usually a mush better solution: http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2003/20030730.htm -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Trios" wrote in message ... The DL already exists. Let me start over.
