....not quite as safe as making your changes in a separate folder. I've seen
too many users make irreversible changes to their DL. DL's are not very
forgiving.

I have a lengthy distribution list that needs to be divided in two.
Is there a way to split the list without retyping all of the names
again

Right-click the DL and move it just a little. Release the mouse button
and choose Copy. This will make a second identical DL. Open it, give it
a new name, delete some of the names, save and close. Open the original
and delete from it the names you did NOT delete from the new one. Save
and close. You'll now have two DLs whose contents together match the
contents of the original.
