Email Merge - Connecting Word to Outlook?

[Guest]

I am running Outlook 2000 and Word 2000. I've been through the directions to
mail merge an email. I start in my contacts folder, go to Tools, Mail Merge.
It opens Word for me, I create my document. No problems.

Then I click "Merge" and select "Electronic Mail" and nothing happens. Is
there something I need to do to connect Word to Outlook? Does Outlook need
to be my default mail program? Is there something else I am missing?

I don't get any error messages. It's just that nothing at all happens.

Thanks,
Nancy

Outlook needs at least a mail account and should be the default mail program.

I am having a similar problem. Where do I find the directions for mail merge
for Outlook 2000? I have directions for Word 2003 but not 2000.
