field chooser not available w/in distribution list

[Guest]

I know I'm being old fashioned, but I actually use Outlook 2000 to manage a
mail (as in post office and stamp) list. I've created a 'distribution list'
to set them off from 'all' my contacts, but I cannot get 'home address' to
show up as a 'field' w/in the distribution list window. In fact, I cannot
open the 'field chooser'--it's greyed out in the toolbar and it won't open
with a right click on the 'title bar' . . . The only fields displayed are:
'name' and e-mail. Help?

Why would a DL need such fields?
A DL is a collection of electronic addresses, nothing more.
For what you want you to do, Contact Subfolders or Categories would be the
ways to group Contacts, not DL's.
