If it's for SEO (what other reason LOL) and you use Webmaster Tools in Google it gives you the option to set it there too.
There is a slightly different format given here:

Just as a possibility if you can't get the above suggestions to work! I have never used it. I will have to use .htaccess at some point. RegExps are something I have struggled with for years and still have trouble :confused:
You can make a .txt file and set all the address you find with the non www and set them to the www like
/Typically itsCode:redirect 301 http://yoursite.com/page1.html http://www.yoursite.com/page1/
redirect 301 http://yoursite.com/page1.html http://www.yoursite.com/page1/
redirect 301 (space) page/folder or address you want to move (space) address to move it to.
Then save the file as 1.htaccess and rename it to .htaccess
In google webmaster tools you might want to set your site to display as http://www.
What is strange is that I tried to set a preferred domain in webmaster tools and it says in order to do that it has to be verified I own the domain.
I use an email from the domain, and have had a verified account for a long time.
I had already verified the acount with a unique html (long time ago) page so what else needs done?

Casino Jack's format is spot on. However, it looks like the code you're using redirects from www.yoursite.com to www.yoursite.com which isn't what you want.
Here's the .htaccess code you need to use that will work:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
rewritecond %{http_host} ^domain.com [nc]
rewriterule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [r=301,nc]
Simply replace domain.com with the name of your domain and you're good to go.
Alright thank you very much guys 8-) I will try it and let you know.
In Google I have set the preferred domain to but when somebody links to http://mysite.nl instead of http://www.mysite.nl the linkjuice goes to http://mysite.nl so thats the reason I want to use this.
Google isn't always right, I had this error to when I had set an preffered domain. But the next day it was gone, mayby it takes some time for google to realise all of this.Quote:

The only thing I can do what will work is mention all the url's and redirected them manually with .HTACCES like Pokerworkx said. But it is a lot of work :P
this works for me, try it maybe it helps
Code:RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^domain.com$
RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R=301,L]
