Determining # of contacts on a DL

[Guest]

I upgraded from Outlook 2000 to 2002. 2000 listed the number of contacts in a DL. 2002 does not seem to do that. What am I missing? I've searched help in Outlook and Online but cannot find how to have the # of contacts in a DL displayed.

My ISP will only allow me to send to 99 contacts at a time, so I need to know how many are in a DL. I use several DLs that are continually being updated. I don't want to manually count the number of contacts in a DL.

Anyone out there know how to make 2002 display the number in a DL?

Thanks for your assistance.

You can use a custom form to make this happen with this code:

You could use the Item_Write event instead of Item_Open. See

more information on this technique.
