Hi. How can I create a distribution list including all my contacts
which have the string "facebook" in the "web page address" field ?

I have tried this so far:

(1) I am capable of using "advanced find" to get a list of all my
contacts which fulfill this condition, but I am unable to drag'n'drop
the contacts from the "results" window to the empty distribution list.

(2) When using the "select members" button of the distribution list, I
cannot find a way to search for the "facebook" string in the "web page
address" field.

1000 thanks for any help

Export all of your contacts to an Excel worksheet or csv file. Open that
file and remove everyone whose address does not contain the "facebook"
string in the web page address. Remove all columns except for their names
and e-mail addresses. Select the rows and columns containing the remaining
information and press Ctrl+C to copy it.

Now open a new Distribution List and click Select Members. Click in the
Members field at the bottom and then press Ctrl+V to paste the name/address
pairs into the field. Click OK. Your DL should populate with the names and
addresses you pasted. Save the DL.
