I'm using Word 2003. How can I add the Query Options command, onto the Mail
Merge toolbar, so I can use it rather than the filtering wizard. Word 97
used the Query Options command, but I dont see it as a command in the Tools,
Options, Commands list for Mail Merge. Is there any way to do this.
Hope there is a way to do this, or do I somehow have to resort to the set up
for merging that Word 97 had?

Tools/Customize/Toolbars, select category All Commands, locate command
MailMergeQueryOptions and drag it to a toolbar (e.g. the MailMerge toolbar)
may be enough.

Thanks Peter - I already have the Mail Merge Toolbar on my toolbar, but was
wondering if just Query Options could be dragged there, but apparently not,
as there's no separate command to drag that I can see.

Thanks anyway.

We may be talking at cross-purposes. Here, I can drag the MailMergeHelper
from category "All commands" and that gives you the Word 2000-style Mail
merge Helper with a button on it for Query Options. But I can also drag
MailMergeQueryOptions, and that goes direct to the Query options (sort and
filter). There's no standard icon for it, just the text "Query Options". Do
you see that option? Is it the one you need?
