Letter Wizard and Word Document Template Problems

[PGS123]

The Letter Wizard (launched from Outlook 2003) ignores all my contact fields
located in a customized document template (created in Word 2003).

I need to place various contact fields in my template so that my users can
use the Letter Wizard in Outlook to automatically fill-in these fields. It
seems that the Letter Wizard ignores all the different placements (i.e.
locations) of these contact fields in the template. The Letter Wizard uses it
own arrangement and the supported fields can only be turned on or off only. I
can't dictate where to place these fields.

I found out that the only thing I can do is to change the text styles (e.g.
spacing, sizes, fonts, etc). The locations of all the supported contact
fields are simply fixed by the Letter Wizard!

Anyone got any experience in dealing with this issue? Any suggestions or
workaround?

Thanks
Robin

Actually, cross-posting would not have caused any problem. This user
multi-posted. That is the behavior he or she needs to be trained not to
repeat.
