Well Wisher-Outlook XPress and Mail Merge

[Roger Hornsby]

You say I can't use Outlook xpress for a mail merge! ##*&*%##. How do I
copy all the contacts from outlook express to text file or csv file? Not
individually I hope - we are talking hundreds here. Any advice would be
greatly appreciated. Roger
