I am using outlook 2003 and word 2003 I want to get my contacts/address book
from outlook through word into a document. I go through the process of mail
merge and pick outlook data base. but it does not show my address book that
is located in my public Folder in outlook. I have tried to change the
properties/outlook address book/show this folder as an e-mail Address book in
both administrator and my own log in. Also have given owner permissions. I
need help. Suggestions?

To merge from a PF you need to start the merge in outlook. Open the folder
then go to Tools, Mail merge. if you need to filter the contacts, do it
before starting the merge.
