Help required with mail merge using my old contacts list (Office 98) with
newly installed xp pro and office 2000. When I try to mail merge I am asked
to enter delimiters and headers although these still appear in my origional
mail merge document. No combination of signs seem to work. When I try to
design a new mail merge document a lot of the insert field choices are not
available in the drop down list i.e spouse

What format is the list in? It might help to convert it to a table - see the
relevant part of http://www.gmayor.com/convert_labels_into_mail_merge.htm
