Default Merging word doc to email addresses list from access

Thanks for your help gents - I have realised now that when the Merge to E
mail box comes up if I leave the mail format as HTML then when I send nothing
happens. If I change it to plain text then it will send but I get that box
about the programme trying to access email address etc that I have to click
yes to for every e mail. As I said before I am using word/outlook 2002 but on
windows 98 - could this be the problem? If I have to use the plain text route
can I turn off the 'do you want to allow this box' somewhere?

Thanks again for your help

I am not convinced you have completed the merge. Click the 'merge to e-mail'
button on the toolbar. Make sure you are off line while testing (or your
e-mail application is set NOT to send messages immediately).

Graham thanks but I still find nothing happens when I complete the
merge and can't see how it actually sends the e mails?

You might find it easier to use the merge toolbar - see
