Can't email merge to Mail !

[JGW]

Hi,

I've written a mail merge document in word and picked up merge fields
from an excel document. Proof of the merge looks fine but when I go to
the button for merge to e-mail in the merge manager, the button is
still greyed out, all the manager will do
is merge to printer or to a new document.

I am using Tiger and Apple Mail !

Any ideas ?

This used to work when I used Entourage !

You answered your own question - merge to email is compatible with E'rage,
not with Mail or other clients. The following is copied from Word Help:

In order to distribute merged form letters as e-mail messages, you must be
using Microsoft Entourage as your default e-mail program. For information
about setting your default e-mail program, see Set your default e-mail
program.
