Hi all,

I have created a few templates in Office XP with Word using mail merge
fields to import Contact data from Outlook. I have two strange things
happening:

1. When stepping through the mail merge wizard and I choose Outlook
Contacts as the data source, I cannot see all my Outlook Contact
folders. Ex: I have Outlook folders for Clients, Vendors, Leads. I
can only see Vendors in the mail merge wizard and oddly enough some
folders that do not have contacts in them show up, like Inbox folders
where I file email messages show up.
All of my Contacts folders are set to be viewed as email address
books.

2. After completing a mail merge and saving the document as new, I
have opened up an older document (totally different contact info and
saved days before) and lo and behold the merge fields have the contact
data entered from the most recent mail merge.

Ex: A form letter is merged with Mr. Jones's name and address and
saved as "mrjones.doc". A week later I merge the template file with
Mr. Smith's name and address and saved as "mrsmith.doc". I go back
and open the mrjones.doc and find Mr. Smith name and address entered.
Very Weird!

Please help.

Thank You,
Jeff
