MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / June 2004Word 2000 Mail Merge
I am using Word 2000 with Windows XP. When I click onTools, a long list (more than 20) of 'Merge ...' appears. Only one of them has a right arrow. When I set up a mailing label merge usning an Excel database, Word tells me I am low on memory and can't continue. I have PLENTY of memory available and no other programs are running. I'm stuck! Any advice on how to get out of this?? (I have already uninstalled and re-installed the program.) The following was posted by fellow MVP Graham Mayor Quote These are attributable to a bug in the Microsoft Works for Windows add-in. This add-in causes loads of problems and you are unlikely to miss it. When you remove the Word in Works Suite Add-in: You remove Word 2000 from the Works Suite Task Launcher. You lose the word processor functions on the Works Suite Task Launcher. You must start Word 2000 in the following manner: Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Microsoft Word Uninstall it as follows: 1.. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. 2.. Double-click Add/Remove Programs. 3.. Click Word in Works Suite Add-in, and then click Add/Remove. 4.. Click Next, click Remove, and then click Next. 5.. Click Remove, and then click Finish. 6.. Click OK, and then close Control Panel. You should then be able to drag all but one entry from the Word menu, using Tools > customize  Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP E-mail gmayor@mvps.org Web site www.gmayor.dsl.pipex.com Word MVP web site www.mvps.org/word <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> Unquote -- Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested.
