I have a "Contact" address list and added a "salesman" address list to my
Outlook address book. Each month I need to email a group of people
INDIVIDUALLY (not as a distribution list) but the same group each month. I
want to know how I can add or move the email adress to the other "salesman
List"???

Clarify what you mean by "Contact 'address list.'" That term could mean
anything.
If you want to send individual messages to a group of recipients, you would
use a mail merge to a Contacts subfolder. You would not and could not use a
DL for that purpose.

You can't (or shouldn't) manipulate your contacvts via the Address Book
interface. Use your Contacts folder instead. You should alwo explain what
you mean by an "address list", since Outlook doesn't have anything with that
name. Make sure you mention your version of Outlook as well.

What I would do is to add the people to the Contacst folder and then assign
them to a category named "Sales". Then then I want to send them all the
same message, I'd open my Contacts folder, display it in the By Category
view, select the Sales category and click Actions>New Message to Contact.
