Options>Selected Form Letters(As e-mail message is not there,which should be
there) >Merge to >Email>Type Message Subject Line>Pres Ok>A new Word documnt
opens>Tools>Mail Merge>Select Recipients>Check Use an existing list(Here if
we try to check 'select from Outlook Contacts'option system doesn't permit
to do so after using >choose contact Folder>
Select Contact List Folder>Ok>Mail Merge Recipients>Ok,here system force us
to return to previous option only) >Next:Write Your letter>Chose (Blue) More
Items Button>Insert merge Field>Check Database fields>Pick up desired
fields>Next
review your letters>Next:Complete the merge>Here we have two
option only either Print or Edit individual letters>email merge letter do not
get produced.
We will be grateful to you for doing faovur to us.
Sincerely yours(kranti mohan,male)
:
You're still starting the merge in Word, not in Outlook, because you're
running it from a mail message that uses Word as the editor. Go to the
Contact folder you want to use in the merge. Select the contacts you want to
merge. Choose Tools | Mail Merge.

You need to start the merge from Outlook, not Word. If you do that, all the
OUtlook properties, including not just Job Title but any custom fields
defined in the folderrrrr, will be available to the merge.
