I am using Word 2K. I want to use my Outlook address book for the data
source in a mail merge document. I only want a subset of all the names
in the address book. I have put these names into a 'group' within the
address book. The problem is I am unable to access this 'group' within
the address book. Is there a way to accomplish this?
Another option I have thought of is to add a field to the address
book, then populate this field in those records I want and include an
'if' statement in the document so only those records would be
selected. Is it possible to add a field to the address book and how
would I do it? I have made a couple of attempts at it but have not
cracked it.
Thanks in advance,
Any and all help will be appreciated.
