Did you enable those folders as email address books in their properties?

Thanks for the reply !

Worked well... only question is, when Word asks to select an Outlook
folder
it shows only the main contacts folder, and we have several sub-folders
that
we want to use individually for contact addresses.

How do we get each one of those to show up on the Word mail merge list of
Outlook contact folders ?

What you need to do is configure your Outlook Address Book Service
correctly:

Trying to print addresses on envelopes from word with outlook contacts
folder.

When try to pick "outlook contacts folder" as a word recipients source,
get
error message "unable to obtain list of tables from data source", so
assume
need to set up the data source from the outlook .pab file.

When try to pick outlook .pab file as 'data source' for outlook to word
mail
merge, get "internal mapi error: the object does not support the
getcontentstable method. contact your administrator".

Is there a good word/outlook mail merge instructions site that covers
this
problem ?
