Distribution List members are excluded from export

[Guest]

I need to save/export my entire contacts list - used to do this easily in
Outlook Express with the .wab files - all efforts in Outlook 2003 have failed
to date.


In Outlook 2003 -
When I export my contacts to a .pst file, individual contacts are properly
preserved and distribution list TITLES are saved. But the members in each
distribution list are excluded.

When I export my contacts to a .csv or .tsv file, individual contacts are
properly preserved but distribution list titles are not even saved -
everything about distribution lists is totally excluded.

Help database says I should be able to drag and drop items from Outlook 2003
into email. When I attempt to drag and drop distribution lists into email,
nothing translates. (Word is my editing program)

I have searched the help database and the MS datebase for a solution without
success.

It is critical that I find a way to backup my address book in its entirety,
including distribution lists.

thanks so much for your help!
