Well, well, well. Troublemaker strikes again.

I am using Outlook 2002 on an XP laptop, I'm 99% sure our exchange server is running 2003. =20

Honestly everyone! The extra characters don't bother me. It's a small price to pay just to have this list available. Jeez, it's FREE.=20

Have a great weekend, everyone.
Lisa
