Default Email Merge Problem

I want to send an email merged with an Excel database. There are no problems
going through the email merge process in Word 2003. At the end of the
process, the system appears to run through the email addresses, but no emails
are sent. Can anyone help?

Default Email Merge Problem

Doug - Thanks for the link. The article suggests that the problem is that
the email option is greyed out. That is not the case. I can proceed
completely through the process with no problems. It's at the end when it is
suppose to produce the emails that nothing happens. Any other suggestions?

Yes - both are 2003. Per the article, I went into Internet Explorer to
ensure that Outlook was designated for my email.
