Default Contatcs interfering with Word Mailmerge

Hi - I have been using MVP Doug Robbins' solution for sending attachments
with email merges in Word
(http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm)

everything is fine EXCEPT that Outlook seems to be overriding the email
addresses I specify in the Wred directory file and replacin with email
addresses it 'thinks' fits the addressee best. I've no idea how irt is doing
this. I have corresponded directly wit Doug in the Mailmerge Group - he had
never seen this - suggested I try here. Any ideas!?

Not without any information. The following are in play:
Outlook version
Word version
Steps used to define the data source for recipients
Steps used to complete the merge
What happens. "Seems to be overriding" doesn't tell us much, does it?
