I have imported my contacts to a new computer and am unable to address
envelopes or do a mail merge in Word.  I am given the following error
messages when I attempt to access my contact information in Word.  
Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot
fulfill the messaging request.  Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set
it as the default mail client.  After clicking OK I then get Logon Failed you
must log on to Microsoft Exchange to acess your address book error code;
"unspecified error".  I am using Office 2003 and do not use Outlook for email
but have set it as the default mail client and still receive the same two
error messages.  HELP!  I am not a computer wiz but use this feature in Word
frequently and must find a way to fix this problem.

So you set Outlook as your default mail client but failed to configure it
with a mail transport?
Indeed, that would not work. You must configure at least one active mail
transport in your default Outlook profile.
