Have got lost with the wizard! How do I get it to put the e mail address on
and send them. When I get to 'complete the merge' nothing happens.

You might find it easier to use the merge toolbar - see

Graham thanks but I still find nothing happens when I complete the merge and
can't see how it actually sends the e mails?

Tell us exactly what you have done.

Have you been presented with the dialog box that asks you to nominate the
field in the data source that contains the email addresses?

Were you presented with a dialog box that tells you that a program is trying
to send mail?

I am not convinced you have completed the merge. Click the 'merge to e-mail'
button on the toolbar. Make sure you are off line while testing (or your
e-mail application is set NOT to send messages immediately).

Thanks for your help gents - I have realised now that when the Merge to E
mail box comes up if I leave the mail format as HTML then when I send nothing
happens. If I change it to plain text then it will send but I get that box
about the programme trying to access email address etc that I have to click
yes to for every e mail. As I said before I am using word/outlook 2002 but on
windows 98 - could this be the problem? If I have to use the plain text route
can I turn off the 'do you want to allow this box' somewhere?

Thanks again for your help

Grab the click yes utility linked from the downloads page of my web site. It
will suppress the security messages.
