Per Sue's comment on the start of the mailmerge - I am initiating this from
outlook.

I'll drop the Word group a message as well and see if anything comes up
there.

Thanks,

ELM I tried creating two formula fields in a Contact view to parse the
ELM first names into separate columns, but Word doesn't recognize custom
ELM fields in a Mail Merge.

ELM AFAIK, you'd have to code this in Word, not Outlook, to handle
ELM processing on existing fields. I'd repost to a Word newsgroup.
