Although it's worth trying the suggestion in the page Grham has pointed you
to, I'm not sure it's going to provide the solution in this case. But nor do
I think MS has closed off the merge to email facility.
Are you using the full Outlook to do the merge, or Outlook Express, or
something else? Have you used another emailer at any point recently for any
reason?

This is what I found in my win.ini file:
[Mail]
MAPI=1
CMC=1
CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
MAPIX=1
MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
OLEMessaging=1
I recently had to reinstall Office 2000 Pro because of a problem with my
HD.
After reinstalling it I did a critical update. This is when I found out
the
email option was no long available in mail merge. I suspect Microsoft
considered this a major security risk and plugged the hole. Any other
suggestions?

The semi colons should not be at the beginnings of those lines. The semi

The Mail section should read
[Mail]
CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
CMC=1
MAPI=1
MAPIX=1
MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
OLEMessaging=1

I have this same problem, but I have a twist to the problem. I
scanned my system for both DLLs. Only found mapi32.dll. I do not
have mapi.dll. Any suggestions?
Thx

OK I have this problem too.
I went to win.ini and opened in a notepad. It already has these
lines (copied as shown)
[Mail]
;msconfig MAPI=1
;msconfig CMC=1
;msconfig CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
;msconfig CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
;msconfig MAPIX=1
;msconfig MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
;msconfig OLEMessaging=1
For years we have been sending email using Word Mail Merge and
Access, outputting email through Outlook Express.
What has happened:
Following our normal practice:
Click on the Tools menu and click on Mail Merge. display the Mail
Merge Helper dialog box. Set up document and data source. Then in
the Mail Merge Helper dialog box, click on "Merge". button in the
lower part of the dialog box. Opening the Merge dialog box. In the
Merge to: field, drop down list - normally we select Electronic
mail.
However, Electronic mail is no longer in this list. What do we do
to get it back!?
Programs etc:
Word 2000 (9.0.2720)
Access
Outlook Exress
Windows XP SP2
Can you help?

and that the indicated dll files are present.

This worked before, but today when I tried to send an e-mail to a
bunch of clients, the merge-to didn't have an option for e-mail.
Just "Printer" and "New Document".
Any clues?
