I worked on making a group contact list from a list of emails that were sent
tome in a word program. I was able to transfer them into my address book,
thus making a "Group Contact" All this for my boss, on my time. SOOO, how do
I EMAIL the Group contact to my boss. I have Microsoft Outlook

Thanks ahead of time if am=nyone can help me.

Explain what you mean by "group contact list." That term could mean
anything.
Nothing is ever stored in an address book in Outlook. All data resides in
Contacts Folders.

i HAVE 134 PEOPLE IN MY ADDRESS BOOK THAT i "GROUPED TOGETHER" SO THAT i MAY
EMAIL THEM ALL AT ONCE. NOW I WANT TO SHARE THAT "GROUP" WITH MY BOSS, AND I
WANT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO PLACE IT OR EMAIL IT TO HIM SORT OF LIKE AN
ATTACHMENT SO THAT HE CAN SEND A GROUP EMAIL TO THE SAME PEOPLE ALL AT ONCE.
I HOPE THAT IS BETTER.

No need to shout, but there is a need to clarify your post and answer my
question. The mere fact that you had to place "grouped together" in quotes
is the problem here. No one could know what you mean. Just tell us exactly
what you did. There is no way to group contacts in the address book. That's
not how Outlook works.
Outlook uses Contacts Folders, not Address Books. It uses Distribution Lists
or categories to group Contacts. We simply can't help if we don't understand
what you did and what you're asking. When you post questions, always include
your Outlook version and whether you are using Exchange Server or a local
information store (PST file) as your information store.

I was not shouting the mere fact that I accidently left on my caps because I
am trying to wrap 50 presents and bake 10 dozen cookies and make my boss
happy all in the same 24 hours is the reason I did not see it fitting to take
the time to retype the whole message. Of course being a man and having things
like Holidays just happen for you I guess you would not understand what it is
like to work 45 hours a week and keep your house clean and shop for 30 people
for christmas and keep your boss happy. Sorry for the inconvenience and just
because you do not understand how I can group 134 people under one heading
and email them all in a flick of the wrist is not my problem. Thanks anyway
I will figure this out myself

It would be easy to understand if you would just tell us. Not sure why
that's so hard. Have it your way.

You have just stepped into it - you have absolutely no idea how many hours
per week Russ has to work, with him being head of a cardiology practice and
a cardiologist himself. (I would say a slow week is only 75-80 hours or
so - try THAT sometime.)

But you are welcome to make assumptions about others without any foundation.
And, the mere fact that he is trying to be nice does nothing to excuse your
behavior. Answer the man's questions or go away - he is volunteering his
limited time here, the least you could do is make good use of it rather than
slamming him because of your oversight.

Wow! How did this turn into something sexist?
