Contacts & Dist List - How 2 Update Both at Once

's Computer Specifications

2003 Outlook: There is a trick (ie) make certain individual Contacts have a
Category Name (bottom of page block)and then make a Dist List with those
members in it have the Same Category name. Then, if you update an address in
one place it auto-updates in another. Didn't work when I tried it. Where am I
wrong? Thanks.

Auto update has never worked for DL's. If you already have categories, why
would you even use a DL?
