mailmerge labels x2

[Rogerburdon]

Moved from office97(Pro) to office2007(trial v.). Copied outlook.pst to
desktop, uninstalled Off.97,downloaded Off.2007 and installed without reboot.
All seemed well.
Trying to use labels but whether from the wizard or from selection on the
ribbon, select recipients from Contacts gives"unable to obtain tables from
data source".What do I do next?
Similarly if I use create labels from the ribbon and click on the address
book logo, I get "can't load extended MAPI library mapi32.dll." Search on
MAPI 32.dll shows 4 files:OLMAPI 2.dll3 twice, one path to programme
files\...office12 with a date 9/5/08 which is before I moved to Office2007
and the other path, \MSOCache\all user\...prorWW.cab dated 27/10/18(which is
the date of moving to Off2007). Both are app extn of c2800KB. The other two
files are MSMAPI32.dll, first path \MSO Cache\alluser\{ }\outlkr.cab dated
27/10/08 and timed same as olmap32.dll above. The other path path is\prog
files\common fliles\system\msmapi\1033 also dated 27/10/08 but timed an hour
earlier. What do I do next?

Thanks Roger & Out

Well the first thing I would do is a reboot.

Next, try initiating the merge from Outlook

Thanks for your reply
Reboot gave no solution.
Had already tried starting from Outlook which works presumably because the
contacts have been selected before the process passes to Word
Looked at Graham Mayor's website. Don't seem to have missed anything. (The
method of getting the single initial for the names will be useful later)

MAPI32.DLL (and SCHDMAPI.DLL which you can download from my web site) should
be in the Windows\System32 folder (Windows XP). See also
http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk/t0002.htm for details on the ini file entries
required.
