Word 2002 and Outlook 2003
When I use the merge wizard, I'm able to use my Outlook contacts. When I try
to do a merge directly from the Merge Toolbar, Outlook contacts aren't an option. Since I have differing versions of the programs, I cannot do merge from Outlook. Is there something I'm missing or am I going to have to utilize the wizard even though it's not the most efficient method? |

Word 2002 and Outlook 2003
This only works if the Word and Outlook versions are the same. I'm wondering
if there's any other way, since our programs are not compatible for this purpose.

Word 2002 and Outlook 2003
I am not sure that this is true. It should work with whatever Word
application is set up as default for DOC files - though I haven't tried it with your particular combination, it certainly works with Outlook 2007/Word 2003. Have you see http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm which demonstrates how to add the AddressBook to the toolbar. If you can insert addresses from Outlook contacts into Word using the AddressBook, this should work also. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Helen wrote: This only works if the Word and Outlook versions are the same.
