I have an Excel doc with names and email addresses.  I would like to make
that into an Outlook distribution list.  Is that possible?  I tried to follow
the import an Excel doc instructions, but to no avail.

Using: Outlook 2003, Excel 2003, Vista

You sound very confused. Excel has spreadsheets and Word has Documents. So
start by explaining what you actually have that you want to import to
Outlook.  We aren't looking over your shoulder so it's hard to get advice
here without clearly explaining what's going on.

What have you treid so far and exactly what went wrong?

Here are some tips about how to post questions:

Q: "Can I import an Excel doc into a distribution list?"
A. No. There is no facility to import any kind of data to a PDL - Personal
Distribution List (either new or one that exists) in any version of Outlook
