Office Address Book Merge

[kevvand]

I have Office 2008: Mac

I cannot figure out how to add contacts to my Office Address Book to use in mail merge. The only name in the address book currently is mine. When I try to merge addresses to a word doc I get this message;

Word could not merge the main document with the data source because the data records were empty or no data records matched your query options.

Any ideas how to populate this.....OFFICE ADDRESS BOOK?

P.S> I have tried adjusting permissions.

Probably the easiest way is to add contacts in Entourage--that's the
Office Address Book.

You can also use Tools | Address Book and I think it will let you add
contacts that way--but since I have Entourage set up, I'm not 100% sure.
It's possible that if you don't have Entourage installed, you'll have
issues, but I'm not sure.

But you can also use Mail Merge with an Excel Spreadsheet if you like.
