And I would guess you have a column of buttons down the middle. Here, the second one (which is marked ">>") adds the whole group. Or you can open the address book from the main TB! window, select the group and open a new message to it from the button at the top or from the context menu. Or you can open a new message and type the group name into the to, cc, or bcc field. > (One other question about groups - I created two groups, one that had > the 'hide items' unticked, the other that had it ticked.

Do the choices at "options | preferences | address history" help at all? -- Best regards, MFPA Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much Using The Bat! v4.0.14 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
