Thanks Graham,
It looks like alot of time and effort went into the article and macro. Somewhat daunting for the average person. I found a nice program that will do what I need (and possible the majority of others) as far as adding attachments he http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/mail_merge/ I tried it in Word 2007 with Outlook 2007 and it works well. I find the only 2 items lacking in the mail merge of Word 2007 for email (at least for myself) is: 1) inability to add attachments (solved with the mapilab program) 2) inability to choose recipients from Outlook using the Categories (ie: just click on what Outlook contact categories you want to send to. The workaround is to make a new contacts folder in Outlook and copy the contacts from the desired categorie/s into that folder and select it when Word asks to select the recipients. If MS would put these facilities into Word (or for that matter if a 3rd party would write an add-on) to do these it would be great. Well,,, so much for wishes.

Word 2007 Mail Merge Email File Attachment
Hi Graham,
Thanks for the reply. I don't have the option in Outlook 2007 for the Tools"Mail Merge". Wasn't this taken out of OL 2007 ? If not, how can I get it back on my menu ? I used that option many times in 2003 and was dissapointed when I did not find it in OL 2007. Please confirm. Thanks, GR "Graham Mayor" wrote in message ...

You have to be in the contacts view for it to be available.

Graham,
Well, I have taken my head out of my A-- and realized I was not looking in the menu when in Contacts. You are (as usual) correct, the mail merge facility is there. That being proven, the only item I see that needs to be corrected for the majority of users in Word 2007 mail merge is the ability to attach items to the email merge.
