russval1Thank you! The whole office suite But I had no third party last time and it worked very well with office XP - have they just disabled in 2003?

I have tried all of the 3rd party apps that slipstick recommended - and some more to boot - some of the links were broken and none of them worked - I have been testing with just one contact, a 3 page document with maybe 10 merge fields, and the only thing that came close to working was mapi toolkit - but that didn't complete the sending process - I have been at this all day and it is very frustrating why did it work with XP and not with 2003 - it's illogical, IMHO!

Actually, they do. The Merge to E-mail dialog in Word 2003 (and previous =

suemvpThats how i used to do it before! It allows you to put a subject line in,
but even if i am only trying to merge one contact and choose attachment,
word hangs before it merges. It used to merge and then the virus secirity
msg would pop up and i would 'allow' it. Juts for your information only
word hangs outlook remains fine -
The funny thing is i used to complain about the length it took to perform
one of my previuous merges coz i had such a slow PC - now i got a much
faster super dooper one with the upgrade to 20003 and it doesn't work - sods
law!!
As i posted earlier I have tried all of the 3rd party apps that slipstick
recommended - and some
more to boot - some of the links were broken and none of them worked - I
have been testing with just one contact, a 3 page document with maybe 10
merge fields, and the only thing that came close to working was mapi
toolkit - but that didn't complete the sending process - I have been at this
all day and it is very frustrating

No it definitely isn't, word just stops working, you can minimise it but in
task manager - it says not responding and its cpu usage stays at around
50% - doesn't move at all like it would do if it was processing!
Could there be anything else stopping it work everything is the same on this
pc except this is a dell with, I presume, its own security settings - could
that be the problem and if yes how do I
a find out
b disable it

Have delved further and discovered that it will not send as attachment even
if you merge to document and then use 'send to recipient as an attachment'.
I had to 'save as' and then 'send to recipient as an attachment'.
There must be something stopping it - maybe the merge fields or something
that are only there at the merge instance and are not after saving.
Any ideas would be appreciated!

I have finally worked out what is causing the problem!
Inside the main document is a text box with a merge field in it - when i
remove the box it works fine! - Is this a setting i can adjust as i know i
have merged with a text box present before - if not themn i will have to
work around the text box.

That definitely sounds like a contributing factor. IIRC, form fields =
generally don't work on email messages. Putting that merge field in the =
text without a text box field should work, though.=20

That definitely sounds like a contributing factor. IIRC, form fields
generally don't work on email messages. Putting that merge field in the text
without a text box field should work, though.

delete blocked senders messages on receipt why junk mail them?
Why is it that after going to all the trouble of putting people onto a blocked senders list the filter still puts their messages into the junk mail folder for you to delete them?

change mail format for contacts
For the iphone, attachments come over as winmail.dat and the solution is to change the mail format in options, mail format to HTML. Also the individual contacts needs to be changed by double clicking the email address and changing the internet format to Send Plain Text only. After these changes are made, the attachments come over fine. I have had problems with this issue with some contact before. I would love to be able to make this change globally instead of having to edit all contacts. Can this be done. It can be done with some VBA code, which you'll find here: ht...

Recently began receiving msg "oe removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail: xxx.jpg, yyy,jpg, etc." What's causing this?

CRM & Email Tracking
Hi, We have CRM3.0 and email tracking is on. For 99.9% of cases, CRM seems to track the emails well, but we have found a few emails that have not been tracked. Of these, I have narrowed them down to a couple of causes 1) recipient was in the BCC line 2) attachment > 5mb however, there are still a number of emails that dont fit either of those descriptions. Any ideas? CRM (or the network connection to CRM) not available to the time the emails arrived in the CRM sink mailbox?

I cannot delete. I get the following message:C:Windows\ApplicationData\Microsoft\Outlook\outlook ..pst could not be accessed...
Incoming E-Mail
Good morning: If I send an e-mail from CRM, and the client responds, the e-mail ends up in my Outlook--not in CRM. Nor does a copy of the e-mail response end up in CRM. I have to tell the program "Track in CRM" even though it was sent from there originally. Is this by design or have I missed a mail routing rule/configuration setting? Thanks Hi Dave, If you look in closed activities, do you see the replied email? I seems to me that the exchange router simply creates a forwarding rule for the iser (the one sending and receiving email) that forwards incoming email with the...
