Mailmerge in Word2000 from Outlook 2000

[Kristian]

Hello,
I want to create a Word Template that lets me print
address labels for contacts in a Public Contacts folder.

I tried with a loop that filled an Excel sheet or Word
table with the contacts and then MailMerge on the
sheet/table, but it only seems to work on the machine I
record it...

Any advice is appreciated!
TiA,
Kristian

Hi Kristian,

I want to create a Word Template that lets me print
address labels for contacts in a Public Contacts folder.

The best way to do this is to initiate the mail merge from
within Outlook, if you're in the UI. I take it, however,
that you want an automated solution...

I tried with a loop that filled an Excel sheet or Word
table with the contacts and then MailMerge on the
sheet/table, but it only seems to work on the machine I
record it...

Could you please show us the code you've recorded so that
we can get an idea of where the trouble might be?

And please explain where, and in what manner, the code is
failing.
