Hopefully someone who has Office 97 installed can help you, P....since I
don't, right now....but I could reinstall it, if no one chimes in to
help you, I guess.

I can only tell you that in Office 2000, in the Mail Merge dialog box,
where you choose your data source, one of the choices is Outlook
Contacts.  Do you not have that choice in 97?  I can't remember.  Since
earlier versions of Office had SO many bugs when it came to merging from
Outlook, I never really used it.  I just made a group in Outlook and
sent the Word doc as an attachment...but since you are trying to do this
with labels, obviously this isn't an option.

Finally, in Office XP, mail merges to Outlook Contacts actually seems to
be bug free....but in the earlier versions it always caused problems.

Anybody out there have Office 97 installed?  Can someone walk P thru
this?  Is it different than Office 2000?  I really can't remember.

Hi Linda, 

I tried to do a mail merge.  I got to the part where I needed to chose
data source and got lost.  I couldn't figure out how to bring my
contacts in as the data source.  Would you please give some direction.

TIA,

P.
