I am doing a mail merge in Word using my Outlook Contacts list. The home
phone # will not display. When I edit the recipient list, the home phone is
not one of the fields displayed. When I use the Match Fields option, home
phone is not one of the choices ... every other phone # is there; pager,
mobile, home2, etc. but there is no field called "home phone" or "home".
This is not a field I created. It is one of the default fields that is there
when you enter a new contact. So, how do I get the home phone number to
display in my mail merge? Thanks!
