Envelopes & Yahoo Address Book
You need to sign into your Yahoo Mail through the webmail interface.
1. Select Mail Options Contacts on the left Pane Select Export/Import In the Export Section Select Outlook button Save button Select a location and filename that you can easily remember (default is yahoo_ab.csv) Save the *.CSV file to your PC. 2. Create or open the Mail Merge document on the Mail Merge toolbar Select Choose Data Source Browse and open the yahoo_ab.csv file So this file is associated with the Merge Mail Envelope template or document that you are using at this moment. 3. Then Run the Mail Merge as you normally do. If you do use multiple Data Sources, when you close the Mail Merge Document, you might not accept the changes to the Document. So the Yahoo_AV.csv file will not be associated with the document when you open it the next time. You might want to first open the yahoo_ab.csv file in Excel, and edit the headers for the fields to match the headers that you use with other Mail Merge Data Sources. So if your other Data Sources use: Home Zip Code You will need to change that header in the yahoo_ab.csv file from: Home Postal Code to Home Zip Code, etc... Then close the *.CSV file and Accept the changes to the file. And proceed with the Mail Merge. -- Add MS to your News Reader: news://msnews.microsoft.com Rich/rerat (RRR News) message rule Previous Text Snipped to Save Bandwidth When Appropriate "trvlnmny" wrote in message ...
