Fax and email not appearing as merge options

I am running 98SE and trying to use Word 2000 to do an email merge to Outlook
Express 6. When I go to run my merge, I only have options to merge to
Document or Printer, but not to Fax or Email. How do I fix this?

Thanks.

Not certain when it comes to WIn98SE but here is what I think you need to do
to enable the e-mail option:

Word is probably not finding some lines you need in
WIN.INI. I would open the WIN.INI file in your Windows directory (probably
c:\Windows) using e.g. Notepad. Check for the following lines (which should
be present in /most/ Windows installations but which may need to be
different in some cases, so proceed with caution). If they aren't there,
make a backup copy of your WIN.INI and try copying/pasting them in:

[Mail]
MAPI=1
CMC=1
CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
MAPIX=1
MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
OLEMessaging=1

As for the fax option, again my memory of the WIn98SE situation faded some
time ago, but what fax software is currently set up on your machine?
