I have a list of contacts in Outlook. How can I get them to show up in my
Word address book for labels and envelopes?

Set Outlook as your default e-mail application in Windows.

I am using Office 2007. I thought I made Outlook the default contact list
when I started. I went to Outlook/Tools/Options/Other and checked "Make
Outlook the
default program for E-Mail, Contacts, Calendar" I have repeated this twice,
but when I go to to Word for mail merge and select from Outlook Contacts, I
get the message to make Outlook my default contact list ! Am I not making
Outlook the default the right way?

Check the setting in Windows Control Panel > Internet Options > Programs -
or its equivalent in later Windows versions.
