Default Word mail merge won't recognize my outlook contacts list

Even though I have a contact list in Outlook, my Word mail merge won't
recognize it for a label merge. My contact list is in a personal folder and
if that's the problem, how do I get it out?

Default Word mail merge won't recognize my outlook contacts list

Have you tried selecting the contacts you want to merge in Outlook, then
using Outlook Tools|Mail Merge to initiate the merge? Setting up the folder
so you can connect to it from within Word may be feasible but it's not
really necessary if the other method works.
