I am mailmerging using Word 2003 (part of Office 2003) and wish to use a
Contact Folder for the names and addresses. However when I "Select for
Outlook Contacts" click on "Choose Contacts Folder" I receive a Microsoft
Office Word dialog box with the following message:
"This operation cannot be completed because of dialog or database engine
failures. Please try again later."

I have "tried again later" but with no success. Any suggestions?
