Hi Carla,
Have her start the mail merge process from within OUTLOOK.
She should set the view so that she sees alls the contacts
she wants to include in the mail merge, then read through
the options the Outlook Mail Merge dialog box provides
carefully. She'll find she can do a lot more this way :-)

Thanks Cindy! She said she tried that and it said she got
an error that it couldn't access the database. However
she could immediately send an email using the same
contact that she tried.

I'm not really "here", anymore (for the next ten days or
so)... Since you don't post the error message, there's
really not much I can do to help, except to say this
technique works for "everybody", so it must be a
configuration question. You might try asking in an Outlook
newsgroup.

It may not fix this problem, but try to make sure that the offending PC has
the most up-to-date version of the Microsoft Data Access SDK (MDAC). It's
downloadable from the Microsoft web site.
