Your question is far too vague to be answered in a newsgroup. The method
varies with each version of Office. You posted neither your version nor the
detailed steps you are using. I suggest reading the Help files, the KB, and
the numerous online mail merge help sites (most of which will involve Word,
not Outlook). If you need help in a newsgroup, then your post must include
your version, the precise steps you used, and what solutions you tried that
did not work.
