I did that and it works; I used to be able to have public folders come up on
this list as well; I am not sure if this happens after I made them a
"favorite" Anyways. I am trying to merge to one of these public folders????

You can create a new contacts folder in Outlook with the File | New | Folder command. A check box on the folder's Properties dialog will allow it to display in the Outlook Address Book, which may be related to what Publisher uses.

How do I add an new mailbox folders that Publisher can see (I don't want to
use my regular contact folder)?...Kevin

You are correct. I overlooked that you were merging with Publisher, which I suspect suffers from the same deficiency as Word: It can't show public folders as a merge source. That leaves you with two immediate options: Port the message content to Word and try the method I suggested, or copy the data from the public folder into a mailbox folder that Publisher can see.

I was looking to Merge to Publisher not word, there does not seem to be an
option in Outlook for Publisher..Kevin

Start the merge from Outlook, in that folder, not from Word.

I am using Outlook 2003 with Exchange, I have created a Public Contact Folder
which I have added to my Favorites, In the properties I have selected the add
to email list.

When I try and access this folder (merging in Publisher) it is not there,
the only thing I can select form is Contacts "Mailbox- Username" there is no
other folder, how do I get this folder to appear for my merge? Kevin
