After creating user defined fields in outlook contacts for the purpose of
merging to my word 2003 letter, I discovered "my fields" were not a choice
available to me. The closest I could come would be to use the "user
fileds 1
through 4" available in the Miscellaneous section of a "contact". This
would
work if I could at least rename these fields but I couldn't. Any
suggestions?
