And labels in word 2000 sr1 (windows professional 2000 environment)with the intention of doing a mail merge from contact information in outlook. Each time I have tried to create a form letter or label document, the insert merge field along with a number of other buttons on the mail merge toolbar are 'grayed-out'; why is this?

1. I am trying to do a mail merge using Word and Outlook on a Mac. However, in Word, the Merge to E-Mail menu is grayed out. Would you be able to help? If Merge to E-Mail is grayed out how to find new life for windows xp In the Outlook Options window, click the 'Mail' tab.
2. One or two clients have mentioned problems with creating mailing labels, using Word 2007 or Word 2010 mailings tab. Only one label is being printed on each sheet of labels. To create mailing labels, from the Mailings tab, in the Start Mail Merge group, from the Start Mail Merge dropdown, click Labels. The Label Options dialog box will be displayed.
3. Hi all, using Thunderbird (version 1.5.0.7 (20060909) for Mac OSX as default email client I find that in MS Word and Excel (Office 2004 for Mac OSX) the 'Send to - Mail Recipient (As attachment)' option is greyed out. If I switch to Mac Mail it works just fine.

So this probably seems like a rather random topic for the blog but given I do write a lot about being organised, I felt this (sort of) fitted the bill. It’s something I have been struggling to work out for the last week and I couldn’t find a good guide anywhere so decided to write my own. After many moments of frustration and endless Google searching on guides for how to do a mail merge email with office for Mac I’ve finally worked it out!!

I just tried it and it worked. I'm used to the MS Word order of doing this. It seems a bit weird and backward to put the fields in before telling the file that it is going to use mail merge. Koenig's answer, The problem was not i the operating system, but in the sequence. To add the Mail Merge Helper command in the Quick Access Toolbar in Word 2007, follow these steps: Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Word Options. Click Customize. Click All Commands in the Choose commands from, and then click Mail Merger Helper in the Choose commands from list. Click Add, and then OK. Merge to Email is available only if Outlook is set as your Default email program. The macOS does set the default, but sets it to its own email program:-) That has to be done by changing the General Preferences in Apple's Mail.app to specify Outlook as the default. It's best to Quit Word before doing so.

Step by step guide on how to do a mail merge email with office for Mac

First, some basic principles on mail merge emails for those who aren’t familiar. Mail merge emails are written and managed from Word, not from Outlook. All data that will be “merged” into the email is taken from an excel file. This file should be set up with headings in each column with the first column being email. So you might have columns that read Email, First Name, Surname etc. Whatever fields you have in this file are the fields you will be able to merge into your document. It is very important that you have this set up correctly with email in the FIRST column.

Let’s get started…

1. Make sure your default mail setting is “Outlook”. You can co this by going to “Mail” (the Apple mailbox with the eagle on it) and selecting Preferences – General –Default Email Reader – Outlook. This is essential. It will not work if you don’t do this!
2. Restart your computer (for some reason I needed to restart before it seemed to remember my preferences).
3. Make sure your Excel document is set up correctly. Email should be in the first column and each other column with information will need a relevant heading. New recipients then go in each row.
4. Close your Excel document.
5. Open word, choose a new blank document.
6. Go to Tools – Mail Merge Manager
7. The Mail Merge Manager will then open. Select “Create New” and choose “Form Letters” if you want to send an email.
8. In the main Word document write out your email. You can merge fields into your document here to personalise it. For example, you may want to write Dear “clients name”. You would do this by dragging the relevant placeholder into the document. It will show up as <<Column Heading>> rather than the actual contents of the column but will merge together before sending and you can preview it in a later step.
9. Filter recipients using the options button. You might choose to email only certain people in your Excel document. I personally don’t use this and tend to modify my Excel file rather than filter here.
10. Preview your email by clicking on the <<ABC>> button under “Preview Results”. Here you can flick through each email with the arrows and it will show you how the email will display. Keep in mind that your signature will be added by Outlook. See below for more hints on this.
11. Click “Generate email messages” and Outlook will open and send your emails.

Hints & Trouble Shooting:

• Make sure the account you want to send from is your default account in Outlook.
• Outlook will automatically add your signature in but if you use a signature with an image, you may need to remove the image or set it so that it doesn’t use a signature for that account and then include your signature in the word document. I found it didn’t handle my logo well when I let Outlook insert my signature.
• If you find that the generate email messages is grayed out this is probably because you failed to restart your computer after changing your default mail reader to outlook (or you skipped this step altogether!)
• If you get an error saying “Word was unable to mail your document. Please make sure your mail program is configured correctly and that you can send mail with it” then shut down your computer and start in safe mode by holding the shift key while the computer starts. For some reason this seems to clear the caches or something and fixes the issue.
