Create mailing labels from CONTACTS filtered by CATEGORY

[Sue]

I have OUTLOOK 2003 and have assigned categories to my CONTACTS folder. I
would like to create mailing labels from my CONTACT folder using the filter
of CATEGORY. Specifically, I am trying to print address labels for my
contacts categorized by XMAS CARDS!

Go right ahead. Just select that category in Outlook and do the merge to
those selected Contacts.

Thank you for the reply.
I tried this and it did not work. I used the filter to display only those
addresses that I needed. From Outlook I went to TOOLS; MAIL MERGE and
followed the prompts but nothing happened.
Any suggestions?

Go right ahead. Just select that category in Outlook and do the merge to
those selected Contacts.

Suggest posting precisely what you did and precisely what happenend. The
method works fine for everyone else. Verify that your Outlook and Word
versions match and that Outlook is your default mail program.
