Default Creating emailing list from column of addresses

I am using Excel 2003
In each cell of a column I have a unique email address - several hundred in
total.
I want to send the same circular email (using Outlook 2003) to each address
in the column
Is it straightforward to convert the list into a single string separated by
semicolons that can be cut and pasted into the BCC field of an email? Is
there a better way?
Thanks all
Howard

Is there a need to make XL do all that work? When I copy the cells, go to
Outlook, and hit paste, it handles them just fine.

My ISP does not allow sending to more than 40-45 recipients in a single
Message.
I suggest that you check the VBA code [Example #2] proposed by Ron de-bruin:
http://www.rondebruin.nl/mail/folder1/row2.htm
On the other hand there is no problem to select the range of E-Mails copy
open a new mail window [I checked it in "Outlook 2003"] click in the BCC
Paste.

The addresses will be paste one under the other.
When you move the focus into the mails body - the addresses will be
concatenated with a semi-colon as a separator.
HTH.
