How to export and print a specific group of contacts in Windows Live Mail

Original title: list of Contacts in the Contact Group
I use Vista with Windows Mail, and I want to create a Word Doc that lists the names and addresses of a specific group of Contact in my list of email Contacts. I tried to copy and paste, but it does not work and I also tried to use the export but it exports just my full Contact list. Can someone help please? You can also simply print a list of names in my specific Contact Group?

Hello

There is no option in Windows Mail to export or print a specific contact group.
You can export all contacts to Excel and edit/print as you wish.

Follow these steps to export the Windows Mail Contacts to Excel:
a. open Windows Contacts by clicking on the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Contacts.
b. on the toolbar, click on export and then click on the CSV format.
CSV (Comma Separated Values). It is a format of generic file used to export or import information to and from databases or spreadsheets.
c. click Export, select a folder where you want to store your contacts in the new format and then click OK.
d. when a message appears telling you that the contacts export process is complete, click OK and then click Close.

    You create a group in WLM almost exactly the same as in Outlook Express (except that they are now called categories).

    Open the contact and click the category in the new section on the Home tab.

    Open Contacts and select all (Ctrl + A), then file | Print. But this will be use a lot of paper. To keep, open Contacts and file | Export | Choose the CSV format, then follow the prompts. Save it wherever you like and print from there.

  • How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail on XP

    I searched for this answer for the last 2 hours.  All the answers are for Vista & Windows 7.   How to export my Windows Live Mail addresses so that I can use in Thunderbird?  I'm moving to Thunderbird because quick view is off & on display unread messages.  They watch for a few days, then stop broadcasting.  Then repeat for a few days, then stop again.  This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.
    But back to my original question.  How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.  When I click on the file to export and then export, there is nothing highlighted.   So, how can I get my contacts?  Or is there another way to do otherwise than through WLM >

    Thank you

    This is happening for more than a month because there was an update of the first part of the last month.

    There has been no update for WLMail 2009 since April 2010. Update do you think has affected your quick view?

    How to export my contacts from Windows Live Mail.

    Open the contacts window by clicking the address book at the foot of the folders pane. On the file menu, click export , and then select comma separated (CSV) values. If you don't see the menu bar, press ALT.

    Note that the last statement on the help page (Export contacts) is wrong: by dragging the window contacts contacts on the desktop doesn't create any kind of file. In version 12 and 15, this produces a vCard (.vcf) file for each contact, but not in the version 14 (WLMail) 2009.

    Windows Live Mail has its own support at the Windows Live Solution Centerforums. Please address any other question you may have on one of the forums on the right side of this page. You are probably asked to give your version of WLMail and Windows so that the answer may be more accurate. In WLMail to find your version of the software, a press on ALT - H. If it doesn't show you the version and the build number, press on escape to two times, and then Alt - F B.

  • How can I organize my contacts in Windows Live Mail

    I am moving from XP Outlook Express for Windows 7 Windows Live Mail and I don't see any way to organize my contacts in different folders as I in OE. I have folders for different 'classes' of contacts - friends, parents, co-workers, etc. etc. When I send an email it almost always goes to a subset of one of these classes if I click on 'to', then select the analysis file it and drag the appropriate contacts "for", "cc" or "BCC". I need to see them all remind me which ones I want to sent to-I don't always have names at hand.

    It seems that with WLM I have to browse ALL my contacts of 200 or more for every email! As you can imagine, this makes it practically unusable WLM. I know that I can create groups, but it is to send a message to ALL members of a group. I rarely do.

    Please let me know if I'm wrong about this. If it's really as I've described, it appears as a problem and is being developed and there will be a solution in the coming months? If this isn't the case, I'll have to search for an another e-mail client.

    Start by creating a category in contacts in Windows Live Mail:

    1. Press CTRL + SHIFT + C to open the Contacts .
    2. Click the arrow next to new , and then select the category .
    3. Select the contacts for this category, and click Save .

    When you want to send a message:

    1. Opening of the Contacts .
    2. Click on the category.
    3. Hold down the CTRL key and click on who should receive the message.
    4. Right click on one of them, and then click Send Email .

  • How can I import groups of Windows Mail contacts in Windows Live Mail?

    I work in a small office where we have computers running Windows Vista and using Windows Mail (version 6.0.6000.16388).  We have hundreds of contacts and a few contact groups on these computers.

    A few months ago, we got two new computers running Windows XP and Windows Live mail (version 2009, version 14.0.8089.0726).  Other computers at the office always have Vista and the other version of Windows Mail.

    I was able to export our hundreds of contacts and import them into Windows Live Mail for new computers have all the contacts... but I was unable to find a way to import groups.

    These groups are all very large and comprise mostly/entirely out of contacts that do not have individual contact entries.

    I've been Googling for a solution to this problem.  The page nearest you, that I could find was this:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/3818-Windows-Live-Mail-import-Vista-contacts-contact-groups.html

    I was very discouraged when I saw the big red warning to the top of the page:

    ---------------
    In the Groups of Contact with Vista, only contacts who are also included as normal Contacts will be imported into Windows Live Mail. Contacts that have been created for the Contact Group only will not be imported into Windows Live Mail. You will need to write these down and add them manually in Windows Live Mail.
    ---------------

    This pretty much described my situation exactly, but manually going through all groups, write all contacts, and then import them manually into two separate machines should always and is simply not an option.

    Are there really no other way I can get these groups into Windows Live Mail?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you very much!

    I have not actually tried this, but I think this method will work.

    1. get a free Live ID (or @hotmail.com or @live.com).

    2. install Windows Live Mail on Vista computer. During the installation, it will offer to signature with a Live ID. Do.

    3. the first performance of Windows Live Mail, it will be important to all contacts from Windows Mail. Give him enough time to synchronize all contacts with the web version of this Live ID.

    4. open Windows Live Mail on the new computer and then connect with the same Live ID. The automatic synchronization process will transfer in all contacts of the web version of this Live ID.

  • How can I prevent anyone using a shared computer to open Windows Live Mail and see my email?

    We have a shared computer in our House running Vista Home Premium. When you open Windows Live Mail my email inbox is displayed. How can I prevent anyone who uses the computer to this opening program and see my email?

    The only way to do is to setup Windows user accounts for each user.  Other users cannot see what another user sees.

  • How can I move all the folders in Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail?

    Bought a new computer with Windows Home, how can I move the folders of Outlook Express in Windows XP SP3 in Windows Live Mail? Thanks for your help.

    Transfer of data from Outlook Express and Windows Live Mail:

    For Messages:

    Copy the * ENTIRE * OE message store folder to a flash drive. (Folders.dbx must be included). Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail. Open WLMail and: file | Import | Messages | Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and the point where it was saved.

    Location of OE message store:

    In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

    For addresses:

    Open the address book in OE and file | Export | Address book (wab) and save it to the desktop. Copy it to a flash drive. Place it on the desktop or another location on the computer using WLMail.

    In OE: Tools | Accounts, select the account and export it to the desktop. This will be an .iaf file. Copy it to the new computer and WLMail desktop: tools | Accounts and import the settings from the location you saved the.
