Default Merging from Outlook Contacts

You can only do this from Outlook as many of the fields (Categories for
example) are not available when merging from Word.

Word 2003, Outlook 2003. The central repository of our contact
information is in Outlook Contacts. I need to be able to mail merge
from these contacts much in the same way I would from an Access
database. I need to be able to query the contacts by Category, and
by other fields in the contact information.

So here is the question. How may I mail merge from Outlook Contacts
in the way I describe? I already know how to do a Word mail merge
initiating from Outlook. I need to be able to initiate it from Word.
Thanks for any help.
