Convert Email Addresses in Excel to Outlook Email List
How do I convert a column of email address in Excel to a useable list in Outlook?
Notes:
These instructions work for both PC and Mac computers, using Outlook or Outlook Web Access.
The email addresses must be complete (name@server.xxx) and listed in a single Excel column to use these instructions successfully.
Steps:
- Copy and paste the column of email addresses into a blank Microsoft Word document.
- A small clipboard appears to the right of the data. Click on this once and select Keep Text Only.
- Click the REPLACE button on the Home tab (sometimes found under Edit > Replace).
- Click inside the “Find” box and enter ^p. (Hint: The carat symbol “^” is typed using Shift-6.)
- Click inside the “Replace” box and type in a semi-colon. (Hint: The semi-colon key on most keyboards is to the immediate right of the letter L.)
- Click the REPLACE ALL button. When the process is finished, hit OK and close the Find/Replace window.
You now have a list that can be copy and pasted into the TO,CC,or BCC sections of an Outlook email message.
My printer seems to get jammed with paper at least once a week. Does it need to be replaced?
If you’re using an inkjet printer you may want to make sure that the paper is not too thick. Try using a standard non-bonded paper to see if that will eliminate the jams. If the inkjet printer jams regardless of paper thickness, it may need to be replaced. Check with the manufacturer to see if it’s still under warranty. If it is a Goucher-owned inkjet or a laser printer please contact the Help Desk for assistance.
The laserjet printer in my office is printing lines down one side of each page. How can I fix this problem?
First try taking out the toner and gently shaking it from side to side. If that doesn’t resolve the problem insert a new toner to see if that works. If not, then please contact the Help Desk.
I have an inkjet printer that doesn’t seem to be working even after installing new cartridges. How can I fix this problem?
Some inkjet printers require you to replace all empty cartridges before it will work. For instance, if you only replace the black cartridge but the yellow cartridge is low as well, then the printer will not work. Another reason why the printer may not work after a cartridge replacement is that the printer may need to go through a series of head cleaning or printer head alignment. These options can be found in the printer properties
I am unable to access files on Darwin/Magellan. How do I know if it’s just my computer or a system wide problem?
First check to see if anyone else in your dorm room, floor or office is experiencing the same problem. If so, then the problem could be system wide and you can confirm that by either checking the status online by going to our Facebook page. You can also check via phone by dialing 6322 and select option 3.
I’ve logged on to my office computer and am able to access the Internet and Outlook but, my network drives are not appearing. What should I do?
Network drives are mapped automatically through a program called Desktop Authority when you log onto your computer. If some or all of your network drives are missing, log off and log back on to see if the drives will appear. Please contact the Help Desk if that does not resolve the problem.

Outlook: How do I find out the mailing address of someone at Goucher?
For Faculty and Staff
- Click on Tools in the menu bar of the Viewer window and select Address Book.
