After you select one or more categories, it searches through your Outlook contacts. Every contact who has a category you selected is added to the recipient list. I'm sure someone who is more familiar than I with Outlook VBA can improve this considerably. Although I have done lots of VBA development in Excel & Access, I have never written a single macro for Outlook - until today. ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu at the top.
