I am brand new to Outlook but have used other mail handlers. I do like
Outlook but am having trouble with what I think should be a simple (and
intuitive) operation.

I have assigned a Category to each of my 500 contacts. (Some people are in
multiple categories.)

I want to create a mail list of just those people in (let's say) category
"Demo."

I cannot figure out where to go just to create that mail list. (Or stated
another way, I want to send a letter to just those folks in the Demo
category. How do I do that?)

Roy

Hi Roy,
The most simpliest way is to drag the categoy Demo over a Mail folder.
Have a good day,
Céline

Or, better yet, select all the items in the Demo category and then choose Tools | Mail Merge.
