Default Problems with Mail merge from Word 2002

Hi there

I am attempting to run a mail merge through an Access database for a mailing
list and the only option I am given is to print to a printer. No option
comes up at the outset for me to create an email document in the mail merge
wizard.

Any assitance would be appreciated.

I think you missed the boat :-)

Your selection for a merge to email is in the very first step of the Mail
Merge Task Pane. If you choose either of the other 4 Select Document Type
options (Letters is the default) it's understood that you intend to print on
paper or create a file.

I didn't get the option to select email on the first page. I only got the
option for the other four options and email was excluded.

I have reinstalled the software and that sorted out the problem.

Thank you for your reply.
