Contact List for WORD
I had to reinstall MS Office Premium 2000. When I went to print an envelop
in WORD, there was no contact list to choose the info from. In WORD, I went to Tools Envelopes and Labels, clicked on the contact icon and started going through the process of setting up WORD to know where to pull the contact list from. Unfortunately, I did something wrong and now there is nothing to choose from. How do I correct this and tell WORD to use the Contact list from Outlook? Thanks, Les |

All you need to do is configure your Outlook Address Book correctly. Method
depends on your version, which you did not post accurately enough. State your mail support mode: Corp/Workgroup or IMO. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "WLMPilot" wrote in message ...

Contact List for WORD
Microsoft Outlook 2000 (9.0.0.2711)
I believe it is set up as WORKGROUP. I do not use Outlook for email, only storing contact info. I say workgroup only because if I click on Control Panel System Computer Name, the "Workgroup" is WORKGROUP. Hope that helps, Les "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: All you need to do is configure your Outlook Address Book correctly.

The first two lines under Help About... we
Microsoft Outlook 2000 (9.0.0.2711) No Email Is that what you needed to know. I use to be able to pull of the Outlook Contact list via WORD's feature that allows you to print envelopes and labels. Hope that helped. Thank in advance again, Les "Brian Tillman" wrote: WLMPilot wrote: Microsoft Outlook 2000 (9.0.0.2711) I believe it is set up as WORKGROUP.

Well no wonder. You don't even have Outlook fully installed. Outlook must
have a mail transport installed because you need it's MAPI services to provide the address book to Word. Outlook must be your default mail program for its address book services to integrate with Word. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "WLMPilot" wrote in message ...

Am I to understand that I MUST use Outlook for my email? I have never used
Outlook for email but have had the contact list available in Word. Les "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Well no wonder. You don't even have Outlook fully installed.

No. You don't have to use Outlook for email, but you must at least have a
mail account installed. "No mail" mode was very briefly on the scene years ago. Almost no one used it and it is long defunct. It contains none of the transport protocols required to provide the address service. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "WLMPilot" wrote in message ...
