I use my Contact records to create an Excel file which I use in an email
programme to send out up to date information to all our clients. It has
taken a long time to 'clean' up the database to ensure that there are no
problems in it but now, how do only add the most recent additions?

I don't want to have to clean up the database every time I make a new Excel
file, so I just want to add the new contacts that I have put onto the Contact
Database each time but I can't find a way to isolate them.

Anyone help?

Order the contacts by CreatedOn and pick the ones added since the last
time?

I was rather hoping that there was some sort of metaphorical Big Red Wire
pointing me in the right direction and I had looked for a CreatedOn tab.
Unfortunately, I never found one.

However, your post made me look at it again and I found that I could look at
them in date order by going to View then Arrange By then Date . . . . Bingo!

Thanks Luther. A welcome nudge (bloody great push!)in the right direction
