Does the Mail Merge Wizard exist on Word 2003?
I am taking a college class and using a text for Word 2002 although I have
2003 on my computer. I was given a task to go to Tools, Letters and Mailings, and then click Mail Merge Wizard. I don't see it on my computer. Am I losing my brains here? |

It should be there, but if it isn't select Customize from the Tools menu and
go to the All Commands category under the Commands tab and scroll down through the commands until you locate the MailMergeWizard item. Then expand the Tools, Letters and Mailing menu and left click and drag the MailMergeWizard onto the menu. You will probably find however that it is better to turn on the MailMerge toolbar by selecting Toolbars from the View menu and then checking the MailMerge item. You can do all that you want with MailMerge by using the buttons on that Toolbar and will find it far lest tedious that using the wizard. -- Please respond to the Newsgroup for the benefit of others who may be interested.

Hey Doug,
I tried your suggestion, but I could not find the MailMergeWizard item on the menu. Am I doing something wrong? I went to Tools, Customize, Commands, then I selected Mail Merge, but there was no listing of MailMergeWizard. I added the Mail Merge Toolbar, but I have not tried to complete the task that I had to do yet with it. Thank you so much for the time you took to help me!

http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm explains the use
of the toolbar etc in greater detail. The mail merge wizard is actually called the MailMergeHelper. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org amvidapelletier wrote: Hey Doug, I tried your suggestion, but I could not find the MailMergeWizard item on the menu.

Doug was correct in that the task pane is also available by the method
sugegsted and is indeed called the MailMergeWizard, but I am curious what you meant by 'Your link didn't work'. Did you mean that the content of the page was unhelpful or the page itself wasn't available? If the latter then please try it again. It should be working - or try the link in my sig. block and follow the menus. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org amvidapelletier wrote: Graham, Your link didn't work...sorry, I really appreciate your time in trying to help me out.

Graham,
The page itself wasn't available. I clicked on the link at your sig. block, but didn't know where to go from there. Oh well...
