Help w/email word outlook mail merge?
January 16th, 2010 | by admin |I make my datasource, have word open with my outgoing message- it very quickly says…merging 100 in 3 seconds then it’s over. NO sent mails appear in my outlook and I included myself on the merge and got no email- MS outlook/word are set as my default clients.
Ok, so you’ve used the mailmerge wizard to connect your datasource to your word document, right?
When you are done, it will say merging 100, and it takes about 3 seconds, but you aren’t finished at that point.
Make sure that your mail merge toolbar is displayed (view – toolbars – mailmerge). On the toolbar, to the right, is the "merge to email" button (looks like a letter with an envelope over it). This is a separate function from completing the merge.
Click that, and it should take care of your problem. Sounds like you were just missing that last step.
Good luck –
