Hey all.
I use ms word 2000's mail merge to print address labels for a
newsletter. But for the past couple of months the "mail merge" option
has disappeared from the "tools" menu. A couple of times I was able
to get it back by doing a "system restore", but this time it's not
working; maybe because I can't remember the date when I printed the
labels last month.
When I do a "customize" under "tools", I can see "mail merge" in the
categories, but it's only the "commands" that I can drag to the
"tools" menu. The suggestions I've received, and tried, and haven't
worked a check the "tool bars" in the "view" menu, but "mail
merge" is not there; open a previously done "mail merge" file and see
where that goes (silly me, I never saved any.); and re-install word.
I hope this post isn't too long, but I wanted to tell all of my
experience. I'm at the point of typing 87 names and address and that
doesn't sound appealing. Ugh!
Thanks. And I'll try any suggestions anyone has. Janice
