Hi,

I need to send a Newsletter out via email and have the list of recipients in
an excel file. I'm fairly new to Office 2007 and having thought it would be
simple to find the info (i.e. merging the email addresses into Outlook), am
actually stuck.

Has anyone done this and could you offer me some guidance please?

Thank you
 
You'll need to start your Mail Merge from Word and set the Excel sheet as
the source.

Will Word 2007 use an Excel 2007 spreadsheet as a source, or does it need to
be an Excel 2003 or earlier sheet?
 
Yes, that is supported. It's just Outlook's Import/Export Wizard that is
still not updated to support the new file formats and Access 2007 databases.
Luckily Access 2007 does a much better job supporting Outlook then the other
way around.
