Default Creating Outlook contacts from individual members of a Group


I have several groups in my Outlook Contact folder that
contain e-mail addresses of individuals that are not on my
global address list. I want to create contacts for the
individual members in the group. I notice that when I add
new members to a group, I am given the option to check a
box to add them to my contacts. However, once a member
has been added, when I check their properties, I don't
have that option. Is there a way to create contacts for
the individuals members besides doing it manually?

Start Outlook offline, so that any message you create doesn't actually go out. Create a message from your DL and send it. Go to the Outbox and open the message. You should be able to right-click each recipient and choose Add to Cotnacts.
