Default Exporting OE groups

Only the Contacts in the Shared Folders will export. Open any group, select
all members of the Group (Ctrl+A), then press Ctrl+C to copy them to the
clipboard. Now open Shared Contacts and click in the Add Contact area and
press Ctrl+V to copy the clipboard contents into the folder. You will have
to do click OK for each entry, but it saves a lot of typing. You will have
to do this for each Group you have created. Then export the entire book as
a CSV (Text) file which can be manipulated in any spreadsheet.

I have created groups in Outlook Express over the years for a mailing list
that I maintain. The mailing list has gotten quite large and I need to
convert the group into a .csv file so that the messages will be sent using
a
mass e-mail sender, inside of Outlook Express. I have attempted to export
the
Address Book, but it will only export the contacts in the address book and
not the groups.
I read other messages on here that said to go into the group and Select
All
and Copy, but those features aren't available on my version of Outlook
Express (Version 6). Any ideas?
