Unavailable field
Hi,
I am trying to use mail merge to print out index cards with the address block and phone numbers from my Outlook contact folder. For some reason the Home phone field is unavailable and the only way I've been able to insert phone numbers is to copy them to the business phone field. This is a bit time consuming, and I'm sure I'm missing something simple. Can anyone help me? Ann |

Start the merge from Outlook (and use the individual fields rather than the
address block field or you will be back asking how to fix it) http://www.gmayor.com/mailmerge_from_outlook.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Ann wrote: Hi, I am trying to use mail merge to print out index cards with the address block and phone numbers from my Outlook contact folder.

Thanks, Graham, I'll give that a try tomorrow - too sleepy tonight.
I've also had a look at another of your web pages from a link you posted here and found it very useful - I now have the old style mail merge back again, thank goodness. Ann |
