Export and Import Dist list
Easiest way is to insert the DL as an Outlook Item in a message in RTF
format.
Otherwise, you need to copy the entire folder in which the DL resides and
open it in another installation.

Never import or export a DL. They never survive. The link to the
underlying
Contact is broken.
Use a supported method to transfer a DL.

Hi Russ
The export and import works perfectly but the problem is that when I
double
click on the contact person in the Dist list to make a change it tells
me
that it can't find the contact do you want to remove it, but the
contact
is
in my main contact list. The option on the exchange server I was
refering
to
is when you have a global address list where all the contacts are saved
and
everybody in the company can use them and one administrator can change
it
so
that when there is a change it is also changed in the dist list. Like I
said
before if I create a Dist List and make a change on one of the contacts
it
also changes it in my main contact list but when you export it and
import
it
in another account there is an error and it is not possible, so that is
what
I am trying to get a solution for.

person in the distribution list to view there individual details it
tells

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.
