Creating a DL in Outlook from Excel with Names and Email

I helped out a friend the other day with a problem that he had getting a list of names and email addresses from Excel into a new Outlook DL. The key tricks are to create a formula in Excel that formats the name and email into something like “Bob & Alice Smith (bobalice@smith.org)”, select all the data in that new column and then paste that data into the “Select Members” in the DL details window in outlook.
