office 2002 - Trying to do massive e-mail Merge from Word

[Guest]

Have a list of 10000 e-mails in an access DB. Trying to send an e-mail to
them all. Did the merge just fine in word, but for EVERY one It makes me
wait 5 seconds in outlook to click yes. if I do it for all of them, it's
going to take 12 hours to send them all.

Is there anyway to disable that stinking allow thing? Or tell it to allow
the next 10,000?????

Do you have Adobe Acrobat (not Acrobat Reader, but the full Acrobat)
installed? If so, that's most likely your problem. See
