I've tried to follow all the steps and feel like I'm almost there, but when I
run the macro I get the above error message. I've checked to see that VBToolsReferences has Microsoft Word 12.0 Object Library, Microsoft Office 12.9 Office Library, Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Library and Microsoft Excel 12.0 Object Library checked. Not sure what to do now. Help! |

I'm sure Doug will have the answer but meanwhile, since you are
referencing Excel as well, you may need to qualify any of the declarations that reference a type that can be either in the Excel or Word object models. e.g. change Dim Datarange As Range to Dim Datarange As Word.Range (because there is a different Excel.Range) Maybe also change Dim Source As Document, Maillist As Document, TempDoc As Document to Dim Source As Word.Document, Maillist As Word.Document, TempDoc As Word.Document although I do not think there is any clash in this case.

I tried adding the Word. in those 4 instances, but I'm still getting the

That would indicate that the reference to the Outlook Object Library has not

I do that by going into the Word document, selecting Developer, then Visual
BasicToolsReferences, right? Then check the box next to Microsoft Outlook Object Library 12.0. It was checked, but now it's not, so you're right, it's not being retained. Why do you think that would be? (By the way, I noticed in other postings that Tammy had the same error message; she was able to click the box and got it working. Not sure why my fix hasn't been so easy, but I'm trying). Thank you so much for your help.

I got it - yeah! And you're right, Doug, just follow the steps. I ended up
starting over and doing it one by one. I believe my problem was that I was not merging into a new document.....Thanks so much for your help.
