I have a client who has set categories in Outlook 2003 and both he and I know
how to use them in a word mailmerge but he has asked " How do you send out a
mail newsletter to multiple people selected by just thier category ?" he has
not set up groups and does not want to have to go back through literally
1000's of contacts setting up new groups and individually adding them,
especially as the categories don't show up in the group add contact section
!. Is it possible ?
 
You start the merge in Outlook by selecting the Category members and
perfuming the merge to the selected Contacts.
BTW, you cannot use Categories in a merge started in Word despite your
"knowing how."
 
Spell checker changed "performing" to perfuming"
