Did you fix your problem because I seem to be having the same type of
problem, I can't hit the merge key and I can't select the folder I want in
the contacts folder. Any suggestions?

I'm using mail merge to create mailing labels. I want to use the Outlook

the following error message -

Any thoughts?
