There is no option to select Electronic Mail. I'm wondering if it's just
not finding Windows Mail as my default.

In that case, assuming that you are using the Mail merge helper with its
1, 2, 3 steps, in step 1 you select FormLetter and after
selecting/creating your data source in Step 2 and having inserted the
mergefields into the main document, when you go to Step 3, select
Electronic mail as the destination for your mail merge and then click on
the Setup button in the dialog and a Merge To Setup dialog box will appear
in which you can select the Data field that contains the Mail/Fax address
and also enter the subject line for the email messages that will be sent.

What version of Word are you using? and what mail program are you using?

Under the Finish and Merge button in Word 2007, there is a Send to Email
item. If you use that, you will be asked to nominate the field in the
datasource that contains the email addresses.

Alternatively, see the "Mailmerge from Outlook" item on fellow MVP

I see in help that I should have an option when I do the merge that I
should have an option to merge to "Electronic Mail", but this is not an
option. I don't understand how to set this up.

I can go to file Send To Mail Recipient and email one-by-one, so
shouldn't I be able to merge to Electronic Mail?

Thanks!!

I have created a mail merge, but I was wondering if there is a way to
put a mail merge field in the To: box so that the merged document is
sent only to the person it was intended.

For example
To: email1
CC: email2

Thanks in advance!!
