Default Word 2003 Email Merge w/Excel Data

When using the email merge feature in Outlook 2003, I can't figure out how to
have the column of email addresses populate the "bcc" field rather than the
"To" field. Also, I need to send this blast email out from a shared mailbox
that is not my own personal mailbox, but it defaults to my personal box.

If this can't be done through Word, is there code that could be used in Excel?

To populate the bcc field, you will have to use a Macro that accesses the
Outlook Object Model.

Such a macro is used in the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with Attachments"
at

http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm

To send from other than your own mailbox, you will need to be logged on as
the appropriate user.
