Default Mail Merge with Outlook and Word 2007.

When using the mail merge feature in Word 2007, when asked to select
contacts, I select Outllook, and then Word closes. No error messages, just
closes.

I have repaired Office and run scanpst.

Any other suggestions?

Suggest posting some actual information such as precise steps used, precise
configuration of your Outlook Address Book, Event viewer information and
confirmation that your Outlook and Word versions are identical.

Default Mail Merge with Outlook and Word 2007.

I am using Vista Business and Office Enterprise 2007 with Business Contact
Manager.

I have populated the BCM Contacts folder with 900 odd items via the Import
from Outlook Contacts option.

I open Word and select Mailings, Start Mail Merge, Step By Step Wizard.

I choose Letters then Next: Starting document.

I select Use the current document then Next: Select Recipients

I select Select from outlook contacts then choose contacts folder.

The timer displays for a short time and Word closes.

I do not receive any error messages. Checking Task manager shows that Word
is not running.

I have "repaired" the Office installation.

I have run BCM, Database Tools, Manage Database, Check for Errors.

Any other suggestions welcome.
