In Outlook 97 I could copy my contacts list and paste it into an Excel
spreadsheet. Then I could tick off answers to invitations, etc.
Copy is greyed out in Otlook 2003 and [clipboard] will not allow any copying
to it!
This is not the first apparent new restriction I've found in Office 2003
progrmmes.
It seams like a lot of useful '97 options are not now available in 2003
versions!
Is MS moving us backwards?
Too much freedom of info?

Please fill in the details. Are you working with a table view, such as Phone
List? Are you selecting the items you want to copy first?
