You should be able to put the addressbook in the WORKS
database and use it to mail merge, if not with WORD, then
install the WORKS word processor too.
| WORKS SUITE is installed with no word processor of its
own, but WORD
| instead. MICROSOFT OFFICE TOOLS is also installed but this
offers nothing to
| help. OUTLOOK is not on the PC for certain. OE is. Its a
MEDION 266 PC.
