Contacts: User Fields

C

Confused

I obviously do not know what I am doing.

I have added a number of fields to my contacts. Clicking on the All Fields
tab and then User-defined fields in folder, I have added several fields with
the New button.

I thought I would be able to use these fields as I create labels in Word,
Access, whatever. Unfortunately, when I either use Outlook Contacts as the
database or attempt to save my contacts as a database, these fields I have
created are not available/exported.

Am I doing this incorrectly? If so, how should I be? If not, how do I
reach these fields?

I have added fields such as the north and west coordinates for an address,
label names, etc. While I could re-do this work, I prefer not to if there is
a way to work with what I have already done.

Can someone help me call up these fields?

I appreciate the help.

You certainly can use them, but you need to start the merge from Outlook,
not Word.
