Putting Email address on a text file

by gocnet Oct 29, 2004 12:22AM PDT

Hi CNET Community,
I'm running W2K and Msoft OUTLOOK. I would like to get my email address contacts and put it in a TEXT file. Is there a way to do this ? When I select ALL, the AddressBook Menu would not allow me to copy ALL the list but only one address at a time.
Thanks in Advance.

I looked at this. I clicked on the contacts, then use the File, Export and Import. I was able to export to a Comma Seperated Values file and then write a small basic program to strip it down further. If you write code, you can do this.
