If it's only an envelope or two that you want see the envelope template
download on the downloads page of my web site, which links automatically to
Outlook. The technique used there is described at

Thanks..

That's alot of work to print one or a couple of envelopes. Is there
a way to create a button in the tool bar that the operator would just
click on and it would automatically print a preselected doc with the
contact information that has been selected.

Thanks for your help!!!

The command is context sensitive. You need to be in Contacts view.
(I have added a note to that effect to the web page).

Changes have been made to the way Word connnects to Outlook
databases in Microsoft's quest to improve security. Instead of
initiating Outlook mail merges from Word, initiate them from
Outlook. This allows Outlook to connect in a different manner (and
provides access to all the fields). You can save the datafile
associated with the merge from Outlook.

I have created several documents that have mail merge. They are
all using address books from Outlook in the public folders that
are on the server. When I open the document after rebooting the
system.
The document ask the following:

Opening this document will run the following SQL command:
Select *FROM C:\~~\~~_virtual_file_~~~.olk ORDER BY COMPANY
Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you
want to continue?

Hit Yes

Then it ask to find data source but it only gives choice for
database type choices.

If I hit Options and then remove data/header source.

The document opens and then I hit Mail Merge Helper and reconnect
to the Outlook Address Book.

I then close and reopen it ask me same first question, Then it ask
that it will be opening the Outlook Address Book converter which
may contain security risk, then it give me the different address
book available.

I would like it when the document opens to just ask which address
book available. That would make life nice.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you very much!!
