shortcut?
Hi,
I'm using OL2007 and I am creating a distribution list. When I add new members to this distribution list, is there a shortcut to add the next contact? What I mean is...I click the "Add New" button, dialog box comes up and I add the contact information for my first contact, then I have to click OK and reclick the "Add New" button--is there a shortcut for this...I have several hundred contacts that I need to add to a distrib. list (I only have the contact information on paper-arrrggghh)? Thanks in advance. |

Use Select Members, not Add New, if you're adding people already in your Contacts folder.

Thanks Sue,
However, I am adding new email addresses to a distrib. list. They are not keyed into the computer, so I can import them into the contacts folder. Is there a shortcut for adding new addresses to a distrib. list without having to continually hitting 'ok' in the add new address and then having to click 'add new'? Thanks!

In the Select Members, you can also just type in a list of semicolon-delimited email addresses, in the box at the bottom of the dialog, as long as you don't care about also adding them to Outlook.
