Adding outlook contacts to mail merge

G

Glenn mitchell

I am just starting to use mail merges in my office
documents. Since I already have set up my outlook contact
address book, I want to use it for my mail merges. Here
are two problems that I need assistance with.
1. After I print a merge document, I can't re open it.
It says I need the data source. I can't find outlook
contacts file to add it to the document.
2. Currently I am merging my outlook contacts into the
document. My contact lists are broken up by folders (i.e.
personal, suppliers, general contractors, engineers etc.)
When I mail merge, I use mail merge wizard and choose the
outlook contact folder I want and then choose the company
and or companies that I want to add to the document. The
tool bar has a button to check and uncheck names. But I
can't figure out how to go from one folder to another if I
don't use the merge wizard. Or is there a better way to
subdivide my outlook contacts book?
