How to use Titles ( Mr & Mrs etc ) in MS Word and/or when mail-mer
 
Hello group, I hope someone can help me prompt…. thanks in advance!

How can one add names to Outlook 2003 Contacts so their titles ( Mr & Mrs
etc. ) appear when inserting the address into MS Word and/or when mail
merging? I can see the Title under Details, however there is somehow not any
way I can get this displayed other than in Outlook Contacts…. Even if I
assign the Full Name to be: Mrs Firstname Surname …. it still doesn't get
used when inserting the name and address in MS Word.

Ultimately we wish to use Outlook 2003 Contacts for mail-merging ( letters &
envelopes ), using the correct titles of people – is there a way around for
this?

Thanks and best wishes

Tatia

Start the merge from Outlook. All its Contact fields will be available for
you to insert as a merge field, including Title.
There are lots of resources to teach you how to do mail merges.
