I got Office 97 from Gateway when I purchased my Pentium 133. In it I
have Outlook and Word and Publisher and Excel. I am new to all of this
and here is what I want to do. I want to write a letter in Word and
automatically transfer the recipient address from Outlook. I know this
can be done but for the life of me I can't figure out how. Can anybody
help me? First of all, am I in the right Group? Should I be in a
beginner's group? This is the first time I have gone offline to get a
group. You know, I don't even know if I am doing this right. So please
some generous person, help me.Thanks. Frank Wheeler

Hi Frank,

You're doing just fine on your first trip to the newsgroups.

Here are two excellent resource sites for doing things
with Outlook. Sue Mosher's site, listed below has information
on at least 4 different approaches to using Outlook with Word,
as not everyone has the same need or comfort level with any
one method.

Another popular site with good information is

    httl://www.outlookusaeast.com

The easiset way to get addresses from Outlook to be placed in your Word 97
letters is to use the Letter Wizard located on the TOOLS menu.  The
wizard's dialog has a Recipient Info tab on which you can select the
recipients address from your Outllok Address Book.  If you want to send a
form letter to several different people, use TOOLS\MAIL MERGE and select
Outlook Address Book as your Data source.

Hope this helps,

Hmmm...on my "standard" Word toolbar is a button whose "tooltip" is "Insert
Address."  When I click on that, it gives me a "Select Name" dialog box that
lets me choose addresses from my Outlook contact list (among others).  This
pastes the name and address into my Word document.

Do you not have the button, or do you have it but it doesn't do what you want?

> First of all, am I in the right Group?

This one is appropriate for this type of question.

> Should I be in a beginner's group?

No, this is fine.  We're all beginners in one aspect or another.
