It's probably the mailing list that's not acceptable. You must use an Office
program such as Excel or Outlook Address Book for merge. Look up Merge in
Word's Help. There's a training course on the Office web site. An easier way
to do a mail list in Word is to use Avery Wizard add-on and type in the list
individually, then save as a Word document. That's good for Christmas card
label lists.

In using Word 2002 to prepare mailing labels from a mailing list I get the
error message "Microsoft has committed an error and must close" whenever I
try to merge the list with the label document. What can I do about this.?
