Default Support "Categories" (Outlook Contacts) in a Word Mail Merge.

Hi Guys,

When your mail merge data source is "Outlook Contacts" how can you choose
the "Category" field, as your merge criteria?

My 600 Outlook contacts are all categorized. But as far as I can see, there
is no way in Word to perform a Outlook contacts merge with the condition
based upon the Outlook contact's category.

My work around is to start in Outlook, highlight the contacts I want to
merge, then initiate the merge from within Outlook.

Am I missing something?

Thanks
