Default format cell content as hyperlinked email address

i imported a contact list from outlook to excel 2003 but the email addresses
are only text - any way to format an entire column instead of one by one?

Thank you but I tried that & it doesn't work. But further down in the
discussions I found a macro that solved the problem.

Default format cell content as hyperlinked email address

In an adjacent column

="mailto:" & HYPERLINK(A1)

Adjust the A1 to your column and start cell.

Double-click the fill handle to copy down.
