Problem with Address Book when using MailMerge

[Brossyg]

I have Word 2002 and Outlook 2003. I tried to use the MailMerge wizard to
set up labels. When it asks for recipients, I choose a outlook address book.
However, when I make the selection of the outlook address book, the Data
Link Properties window comes up...and certainly shouldn't. I recently
upgraded from Outlook 2002 to 2003, and before I upgraded the MailMerge
wizard worked just fine. Is there a compatibility problem with the new
Outlook 2003?

Please help. Brossyg

You need matching versions. The solution is to export the Outlook data to a
comma-delimited .csv file or some other format, then use the exported file
for the merge.
