Hi,

I have added a number of contact groups or distribution lists. However when
I create a new mail, and try to use the lists they are not found. This also
applies to all my contacts.

I seem to remember a setting that instructs Outlook 2000 where to look for
email addresses etc but I can not find it now.

Should I be able to create a distrbution list in my contacts folder called
"Users" and then when creating a mail just write Users in the "To" field?

And should I be able to include a distribution list in another distribution
list?

I believe Yes to both questions.

Did you right click on your contacts book, properties, go to the
Outlook Address Book tab and select the option to show this folder as
an email address book?
 
Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I checked out what you said and discoved that the option is "greyed out".
Any ideas why?

Read the instructions I posted.
That's why I posted them--so you would know what to do.
