MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / September 2005Email Mail Merge problem
Hi I was wondering if anyone can help? At work I use MSWord 2002 and MSOutlook 2003 and frequently use it for email mail merges sucessfully. At home I have MSword 2002 and Outlook 2002 and have found a really frustrating problem. In word when I select tools and then letters and mailings and then mail merge wizard the first stage of the wizard asks 'What type of document are you working on' - the list is the same as the one on my work computer except it does not have 'email messages' as an option. I was wondering if anyone can help. I have checked that outlook is my default email system on my home PC but that has not made a difference. When I look the help option it says my system must have a MAP Icompatibel email programme such as outlook - which I do have so I was wondering if somehow word is not detecting this? Any help gratefully recieved as this is driving me crazy!  Signaturesally You may find the merge toolbar more useful than the wizard - see http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_labels_with_word_xp.htm As for the lack of the e-mail option, if you are unable to merge with Outlook to e-mail, check that your win.ini file (in the Windows folder) contains the following section [Mail] MAPI=1 CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll CMC=1 MAPIX=1 MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1 Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> > Hi > I was wondering if anyone can help?
