Using Word 2002 and Outlook 2002, how do I change who the email message is
FROM? It is using my default email address and there is no place in the
email mail merge window to change this. I need to have this email merge
appear to come from my client. Suggestions?

Change the default email address on your machine for the duration of the
merge. That's the only possibility if you want to use mail merge.

Other than that, your choices would be using VBA instead of mail merge, or
finding a third-party software that will do what you need.
