why outlook contact folder will not merge to word document anymor

[Guest]

I have used word 2003 to email a document using a folder from outlook
contacts before.Now when I start from word, click on tools, letters and
mailings, mail merge, Email messages, start from existing document, open,
select from outlook contacts, choose contacts folder,then OK, mail merge
recipients comes up blank from that particular folder only. All other folders
merge with no problem.

Is that particular contact folder set up as an Outlook Address Book? Go into
the properties of the folder and look at the Outlook Address Book tab.

You might want to try starting the merge from Outlook then, instead of from
Word. While in your chosen Contacts folder, click Tools | Mail Merge.
