Did you by any chance use Windows Easy Transfer to move data from an older
PC to your current one?
I am told that in that case a corrupt Outlook Profile is created and you
have to create a new one (probably in Control Panel|Mail - it depends which
version of Windows you are using.
Another thing to try is the following:

Amazing - I did use Windows Easy Transfer from my old XP laptop and am using
Vista now!!!
I made a new Personal folder and in the email tab went to 'change folder'
and changed to the new one. I also discovered that I also had to go to the
'data files' tab and change the default to the new one I had created. My mail
merge worked like a dream!!!
Thanks so much for your help.
