Default making envelopes with outlook express as address book look-up

I am using Word 2003 for making envelopes. How do I make Outlook Express my
default mail client in order to use that as the address book look-up? Also,
do I have to import the OE address book somewhere?

You don't. The function requires Outlook, not Outlook Express. You should be
able to export the OE address book to a file which can be used for mail
merge.

Thanks. I was able to export my OE address book to Outlook without a problem
for use by Word but is there a way to keep OE as my email program?

Not if you want to insert addresses into Word.
