I am getting frustrated.

I have a rather lengthy list of addresses in a group that I use for my
fianc�e's band mailing list.  I cannot seem to easily copy that entire list
of addresses into a text file or Excel column without using multiple tedious
steps to accomplish it.  Apparently I cannot simply open the Group, Select
All, and copy the list and paste it somewhere else.  In order to do it I
have to make sure every address in the group has a separate address book
entry and then make sure that each one has the same category assigned to it
and then filter to just that category, select all, copy and paste into
Excel. Except then every addresses pastes into one cell, instead of all down
the column, so I have to then save the Excel sheet as a CSV (which takes
several tries to get it to believe that I really do want to save it as a
CSV!  And then I have to reopen it in Excel, and then I finally have a
useable column of all the addresses.

Problem with that tedious trick is that if I happen to have forgotten to
assign a category to an address when I added it to the address book as a
separate entry, then I am missing it, and I know I am missing some now
because I have "X" number of addresses in the Group, and only "Y" number of
addresses that have that category, and it would take me way too long to open
each address from the group window and figure out which ones are missing!

The reason I need to do all of this to begin with is that I'm going to start
running this list off a web based mailing list manager, instead of through
E'rage from now on, but I need a list of addresses that I can paste in as
one single column with one address per line.

There has got to be an easier way...

Anyone?
