Outlook Mail Merge default folder-2nd Request

[Brian Collie]

In Outlook 2002 "Tools/Mail Merge" allows me to select an existing document.
The default folder is My Documents.

We have our merge documents in a shared network folder. Is there a way to
change the default folder so that the users don't have to browse thru
numerous folders to get to the existing merge document?

TIA

1. In your "My Documents" folder make a shortcut to the folder that
contains the mail merge document.

2. Map a network drive say X: and map it to the folder that contains the
mail merge document

3. Add the the folder that contains the mail merge document to your
favorites. In the file chooser navigate to the favorites.

I'm not sure which file chooser you are presented with, but alteast one
of these options should work.
