I have been using MS Word to merge Outlook addresses on envelopes for years.
But now, for reasons unknown, when I open my template merge document, or for
that matter when I create a new one from scratch, MS Word immediately shuts
down when I try to access the Outlook addresses (Ribbon Mailings tab: Select
recipeints: Select from Outlook contacts...). This is recent - after loading
MSO2007 SP2.

I saw one previous posting in this regard, but the correction was SP2, which
I have already done. I have also checked the Registry with respect to the
article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918792, and everything appears as
expected.

I am running MS Office 2007 Pro SP2 on Windows XP Pro.

Anyone know anything about this?

Try initiating the merge from Outlook.
