I'm always so greatful for this forum - it has prevented me from looking incompetent on many an occasion! So...

I have 300 email addresses in an Access database field. Is there an easy way to export them to Outlook Express as an address book for a mailing list?

I'm pretty sure you can import email addresses in text (CSV) format with the Address Book in OE.

Yeah, easy.

In Access export a table as a .csv file.

In OE input an "Other Address book", selecting the csv you exported.

You then get to choose which fields in the csv end up in which field in the address book.
