Importing Outlook Contact Info to Address Letters in Word
There has got to be any easy way to do this - but I can't find it. When
addressing a single letter in Word (not a mail merge) is there a way to import information for a specific contact that I have stored in Outlook? Thanks! |

Importing Outlook Contact Info to Address Letters in Word
I am still going round in circles trying to insert addresses from my outlook
contacts in word documents. I followed the steps described above; but in word when I try to insert a contact address I continue to get the message: "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run microsoft office outlokk and set it as the default" I have done this but it still does not work. It worked perfectly in Office 97-03, Why is the new version so complicated? Trying to sort out this and other problems (I want to find a playscript format too) is so time consuming in a busy life. "Elsie Crocfer" wrote: OK, I apologize for the irritation. I found it.
