Outlook 2003 and GroupWise - e-mail merges

[tj]

I'm running Office 2003 including Outlook which is
installed but not used as the primary e-mail client...
Our company uses GroupWise v 6.5 (it smells)... but
that's what we have to live with...

I need to run an e-mail merge to Groupwise from MS Word,
and though it seems set up properly, the "merge" just
goes off into oblivion... no errors... nothing... the
only thing that indicates a problem is that when you try
to do a "send to mail recipient as attachment" (a
document or spreadsheet you're working on) from any MS
Office application, e.g., Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.,
a dialog box appears requesting that you select
a "profile"... GroupWise default settings are the
only "profile" available and advanced settings allow you
to make it the default... I do, but the settings don't
persist and the dialog appears every time...

Does anyone have any thoughts on this... how to make MS
Office/Outlook/Groupwise coexist and interact properly...

Help would be sooooooooooooooo welcome !!

Thanks... tj

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but in my personal experience gw 6.5 and outlook 2003 simply cannot share a machine. I lost my gw archives, then lost outlook functionality before I finally had to pick one and uninstall the other.
