Default Mail merge list not recognized

The problem isn't what is in your spreadsheet, unless you tried to insert an
ADDRESSBLOCK field in the envelope. The problem is that you need to insert
Merge fields into the address area of the envelope. It may be easier to
enable the MailMerge Toolbar (try Tools|Customize, then use the 6th button
from the left ("Insert Merge Fields") to insert the merge fields
corresponding to Company Name, Address, City/State/Zip

State Zip. I have three column on the spreadsheet(1) Company
Name,(2)address(3)City, State, and zip. Does the city state and zip need
to
be in seperate columns?

Document type-Evelope

On the select receiptients tab, using an existing list from an Excel
spreedsheet, prompts to select a table. I pick the set print area table
from
the excel spread sheet. Next appears the mail receipients list with the
info
from the spreadsheet. I press ok.

Next step to preview envelope-Nothing appears on envelopes besides
return
address. The correct number of envelopes are paged but no receipients
on
any
of the envelopes.

Please help.
