Default Problem with Office 2007 sending mail merge with outlook email.

When first using email mail merge in MS Office Word 2007 received message
"There is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot complete
the message request." When I clicked ok, received another message "Unable to
obtain list of tables from the data source" I ran Outlook and it is the
default mail client. I then opened IE and set MS Outlook as default. When
attempting to click on choose contact folder the default message no longer
appeared but the Unable to obtain list message did. Went to knowledge base
and clicked where it suggested I click Contacts in Outlook, right clicked
contacts folder, clicked properties, Outlook address book tab, clicked to
select the Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book and it was checked.
Please help--

Default Problem with Office 2007 sending mail merge with outlook email.

did you run Office diagnostics? Did you restart word after changing the
default client settings?
