There is, but it requires several steps.
1. Copy your Category members into their own subfolder and enable that
subfolder as an email address book.
2. When you create a new DL, use that subfolder as your source in the Select
members dialog, select all Contacts and add them to the DL.

I think most people prefer to stick with categories and just do a cut and
paste from the To: field to the BCC field.

Dear All:

A: Outlook 2003
B: OS = XP

Is there a way to create a Distribution List from a category ?

I have a number of clients in special categories ( usually company name)

However, there are times when I want to send BCC to several clients
and would like to find a way to send that email without having to
insert all the names. The category list of names can only be in
the To: portion of the outgoing email.

Suggestions highly appreciated.
