E-Mail Merge in Word

[Lucie Chénier]

I'm trying to do an e-mail merge in Outlook and I get this message: A
program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook....
I'm using Outlook 2003 and Word 2002.

Is there a way in the registry to disable this message?

Thanks,



Lucie Chénier

I'm trying to do an e-mail merge in Outlook and I get this message: A
program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in
Outlook.... I'm using Outlook 2003 and Word 2002.

I don't think this will work. The versions of Word and Outlook must match
in order to take advantage of Office integration.

It may be possible to edit the registry, but I had the similar problem
and used this program to overcome it:

(insert appropriate disclaimer here - i don't have any special
information on the program except that it worked for me)

Hi,

You complicate too much when you use MS Word to do a mail merge. It is
simpler and faster to use an Outlook add-in like Easy Mail Merge to do this.

Since I'm working in an environment where no third-party softwares are
installed I can't work with this kind of suggestion.

Thanks,

Matching Word and Outlook versions are generally required. Once you have Word 2003, you'll also need to set HTML as the merge message format.
