New Letter to Contact
 

XP Home, Outlook 2003, Word 2003

I saved Contemporary Merge Letter.dot with my company information, and
standard Thank You letter text. From within a contact record I choose
ACTIONS/NEW LETTER TO CONTACT. Under "Choose a page design" I select
Contemporary Merge Letter, and the document in the preview window looks
correct with my company name, address, message text and and other
information I entered into the template. But when I click FINISH all that
shows up in the final document is the contact's name and address. All my
information is gone, no company name, logo or message. It's right in the
preview window, so I knopw I edited the correct templatein c:\doc and
setting\owner\app data\microsoft\template.

What am I doing wrong? How do I make this work?
Thanks in advance!

New Letter to Contact
 

I think everyone else abandoned the New Letter To Contact Wizard years ago.
It was always more trouble than it was worth. Most people just create Word
templates then use Word's Insert Address function to populate them. If you
want to do a mail merge, you can always save a merge document for reuse as
