Hi Russ
The person that worked here before me had the dist list on there e-mail
account and now I have my own e-mail account and need the same contact
details and dist list, we don't have a exchange server that would have made
life so much easier but for now Outlook should be more than capable of doing
the job.
Regards
Casper

Even a casual perusal of the posts in this group would have answered your

DL's never survive export and import. They barely survive one day to the
next on their own.
The obvious question is why would you ever export or import Outlook data?
There is never any reason to do so, and you lose a lot more information than
just DL's.

When I export and import a dist list and also the whole contact list from
which the dist list was created from, I can't double click on the contact
person in the distribution list to view there individual details it tells
me
the contact can't be found but it is in the main contact list, is there
something I can do to fix it because it works in the original outlook
account
it was exported from.
