I have not worked with outlook, except to send an email, but I was asked to
set up a distribution list so that I can email a file to multiple clients. I
have set up the email addresses in excel. Is there a way to set up Outlook
so that I can set up the fields that I need such as name, address, client no,
email address., contact person. I tried to import into a group under
contacts, but when i get to the step that says it will could take several
minutes to import, the next button is grayed out. As you can tell I am out
of my element on this. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
 
If it is a small DL, I would just use File->New->Distribution list. Import your Excel contacts into Outlook and you should be able to select members from your contacts folder.
