Merge Toolbar
You should have both pulldowns. Try unchecking the Mail Merge toolbar under
ViewToolbars to remove it, and then go back and check it again to get it to be displayed afresh. -- Hope this helps.

Merge Toolbar
Thanks Charles, this is exactly what I was looking for. At some point I must
have customized the toolbar, but it was so long ago I didn't remember the process. And somehow my Merge Toolbar went back to default. Kindest regards and thanks again for your help.
