I am the delegate for someone's contacts and I need to do a mail merge. When
I go into Word to do the mail merge, I can only select the recipients from my
own contacts. Is there a permission that needs to be adjusted in the other
person's database so I can select recipients from his database?

You would need to add that person's mailbox to your Outlook profile and
start the merge from that mailbox's contacts folder.
