The steps I followed started at selecting specific Contacts in Outlook
Contacts, dropping down the Tools Menu in Outlook, selecting mail merge,
specifying "only selected contacts" and merge type "envelopes". When Word
opened, follwoing the dialogue boxes there, defaulting to a size 10 (letter)
envelope and merging to a new doc - all records.

Does that clarify?
The reason I did not go from Word is that I was trying to step an atty
through this. He was alrady trying to start from Contacts and it was easier
to explain it to him that way. It SHOULD have worked. I was just wondering
if there was a known glitch that I haven't read about. it worked for me in
other environments.

Impossible to say since we have no idea which instructions you followed
properly.
Using the Envelopes and Labels Wizard in Word seems a much simpler
approach.

I tried to print an envelope for only one Contact using the ToolsMail
Merge command from my OLK 2003 Contacts. Following the intsructions
properly, what I got was a blank envelope in Word. What gives?
