Are you in Outlook Contacts and then you select Mailmerge from the Tools
menu? See the "Mailmerge from Outlook" item on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at: http://www.gmayor.com/mailmerge_from_outlook.htm -- Hope this helps.

outlook 2007 mail merge
If you have problems with MAPI see is http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/t0002.htm
helps. It has been reported that installing MAPILabs Outlook Mailmerge Toolkit resolves many of the problems of e-mail merging by fixing the missing items that cause the problems in the first place. It might be worth installing the trial version if Peter's page doesn't fix it for you. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jack 30 wrote: Still no luck "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: Have you tried initiating the merge from Outlook? -- Hope this helps.

outlook 2007 mail merge
1. Is Outlook your default e-mail application for Windows? - If not make it
so! 2. If you add the address book to the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar) can you insert an address into a Word document? If having attended to 1 above, you still cannot insert an address, open Outlook 2007 and from the file menu - data file management - address books. Is Outlook address book listed. If not, add it. If it is select it and click Change. Remove the Outlook Address Book. Close the dialog then add it back again to repair the links. This will not affect your contacts list. 3. Are you starting the merge from Word or Outlook? 4. Have you read - http://www.gmayor.com/mailmerge_from_outlook.htm ? 5. Have you read http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm ? -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Jack 30 wrote: Just to clarify on my prior rant alls I am trying to do is make some mailing labels.

outlook 2007 mail merge
I'm in the same boat as Jack30. In response to the most recent post from GM,
Outlook is my default email application, I added my address book the QAT in Word, I went into Data FileManagement and removed the three Contact groups I've created that appeared under Outlook Address Book. I was not able to remove the entire Outlook Address Book as GM suggested, as the "x Remove" button is greyed out. I then went into the three individual Contact groups and through Properties, made sure that each had the box checked "Show this Folder as an Email Address Boook". All three were already checked. These three did not subsequently reappear under the Data File Management, much to my chagrin. After a reboot, and a careful re-reading of http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm , I was able to successfully create labels, but only from Outlook, selecting the Contact group from which I wished to use and then carefully going through the tuturial just referenced. Starting from Word continued to generate the MAPI erro message. Thanks for your help. And Microsoft: there has to be an easier way to do this. I have stared the merge from both Word and Outlook. I have successfully done this before, but only once on Vista and that was 12 months ago. "Graham Mayor" wrote: 1. Is Outlook your default e-mail application for Windows? - If not make it so! 2.

outlook 2007 mail merge
I don't use Vista so am fishing a bit here - If you look at my page
http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm you will see a reference to SCHDMAPI.DLL and a download link for this file. It's a long shot, but I wonder if adding that file will fix the problem? If not you can always remove it again. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Steve wrote: I'm in the same boat as Jack30.
