Am I using the right features Outlook features? Is what I'm trying to do
possible with Office 2003?

I want to send to 2,000 different people a message that has an active,
clickable link (i.e., 2,000 different URLs, a different one for each person).

I have a set of 2,000 contacts in a special folder and each contact has, in
the "User 1" field, a different URL. I can do the mail merge and I can send
messages with the inactive, unlinked text of the URL simply enough, but I
don't want to have the recipient have to copy and paste the URL into an IE
address bar. How do I get that merged in URL to activate so it's clickable
(even with CTRL-CLICK or something like that)?

If this is the wrong way to approach this, please enlighten me.

Thank you!

Paul
