MS Office Forum / Publisher / General MS Publisher Questions / June 2007Merging From OL to Publisher
Hi, I don't know if this a publisher or an OL ?. I want to be able to merge to a category of OL. When I am in a Publisher File that I want to do a mail merge, I go through the wizard which is great, then when I choose the contacts folder, I get the Mail Merge Recipients Window. At that point categories are not an option to filter. Is it possible to add categories as an option to the Mail Merge Recipients Window? The way I do it now is to keep an empty contact folder and copy the category over and then merge that folder. BTW Office '03 & '07 > Hi, > I don't know if this a publisher or an OL ?.

Help here Mail and catalog merge http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/publisher/CH062524751033.aspx I am assuming you are using Publisher 2003. Publisher 2007 made merging from Outlook more user friendly.

It seems that MS uses categories different then my thinking. I like to keep most everyone in my main contacts folder and use categories. I have many contacts that are multiple categories, i.e. Past Client, SOI, Investor, Builder... As you can see that using folders to separate would be not be ideal. One piece of contact information changes it would not be fun to update. There is no option to merge to a category form the Mail Merge Recipients Window. In either version '03, '07 When you start in Publisher, you drill down to the OL Mail Merge Recipients Window and there is no option for category. When you start out in OL it uses a word doc and not publisher. > Help here > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] >> The way I do it now is to keep an empty contact folder and copy the >> category over and then merge that folder. |
