I am using Office XP.
I have created a standard letter with Words with the contacts in Excel.
After performing Mail Merge, which was successful, I tried to send out to all the recepients (>250) through Outlook. However, for every message, Outlook will prompt me 'Another program is trying to use Outlook to send mail.... Could be virus etc etc...' and I'll have to click 'Yes' on every message that is going out.

Is there anyway I can prevent myself from clicking 250 times everytime I send out the letter? (Which may increase as time go by)

Thanks,
Dennis

I haven't used it myself but others have mentioned the "Express ClickYes"
utility that is available as a free download from:
