I am trying to do a mail merge gleaning data from two "public/shared contact
folders" (Small Business Server) into one document. I am very familiar with the mail merge in general. My problem, how to find the data source for a public folder? Where is it and what is its file type? And, how to use two such contact folders for one mail merge? Any clues? -- William H. George VP, Operations Quality Painting & Wallcoverings, Inc. |

![]() You find the data source very easilly - start in the Contacts folder, highlight the Contacts you want to merge to and then Tools | Mailmerge | select merge to email and then use the Insert Merge fields button in Word. Word will fire up automatically. This is a good reason to have Contacts in a single folder - if you want to merge to COntacts from 2 folders, you need to repeat the process from scratch.
