Once the recipient gets your email they’ll drag and drop the attachment to their contact folder in Outlook. Didn’t I tell you it was easy?!??!</p><p>Oh and absolutely, sharing a distribution list is not to be confused with sending your contact items.</p><p>The send method for contacts will depend on just how many contacts we re talking about. Less than 30, I d use the Send As vCard feature (select the multiple contacts>Actions menu>Send as vCard. The terminology is a little different in Ol2007, but it s in the Actions menu area. If it s a lot of contacts then they should export out as csv file, send to you, and you import them from the csv file.</p><p>Watch the video below to see this process in action.</p><p>Andrea Kalli</p><p><embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AbL1HQA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="340" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></p><br/><a href="http://www.socialmarker.com/?link=http://www.productivitypodcast.com/businesspodcast/2008/04/14/sharing-your-outlook-distribution-lists/&title=Sharing+your+Outlook+Distribution+Lists&text=I+know%2C+I+know%26%238230%3Bit%26%238217%3Bs+only+been+a+few+days+since+my+last+podcast.+But+I+just+had+to+try+out+my+new+Aweber+Blog+Broadcast+feature+that+I%26%238217%3Bve+connected+to+this+blog+site.&tags=" target="_blank" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackVisit('/outbound/article/http://www.socialmarker.com/?link=http://www.productivitypodcast.com/businesspodcast/2008/04/14/sharing-your-outlook-distribution-lists/&title=Sharing+your+Outlook+Distribution+Lists&text=I+know%2C+I+know%26%238230%3Bit%26%238217%3Bs+only+been+a+few+days+since+my+last+podcast.+But+I+just+had+to+try+out+my+new+Aweber+Blog+Broadcast+feature+that+I%26%238217%3Bve+connected+to+this+blog+site.&tags=');"><img src= "http://www.socialmarker.com/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a><noscript><a href="http://www.socialmarker.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackVisit('/outbound/article/http://www.socialmarker.com');">Social Bookmarking</a></noscript><div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=RQD5u9G"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=RQD5u9G" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=jmcEthG"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=jmcEthG" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=UGCYlsG"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=UGCYlsG" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=H7q2lTg"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=H7q2lTg" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=w0zrzpG"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=w0zrzpG" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=7C13b8g"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=7C13b8g" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?a=GXnItHG"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas?i=GXnItHG" border="0"></img></a></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BusinessProductivityTechniquesToolsAndIdeas/~4/270360984" height="1" width="1"/>
