Seems a good idea....

Following done on XP computer :

I created a new wab - opened my original wab which has the Groups -
opened a group - clicked on one name - pressed Cntrl A - nothing
happened - managed to highlight all the contacts in the group -
pressed Cntrl C

Went to new wab - tried to press Cntrl V - nothing happened......

My original wab with the Group in is tied to Outlook by the way....

Something went wrong on the way

Hope to hear the remedy soon

Cheers
