mail merge 2003 Outlook

[Guest]

When doing a mail merge in Outlook 2003, is there a way
to eliminate the message about sending e-mails on your
behalf? I would have to click "Yes" 180 times and don't
want to do that. Thanks!

Use HTML format.

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately that didn't
do the trick. Any other ideas?

Nope. This is what works. You haven't told me anything.

I was trying to do a mail merge between Outlook 2003 and
Word 2000 using information from an Excel 2000 file.
When I clicked on Merge, the first message said another
program was trying to access Outlook, so I allowed access
for the maximum 10 minutes. Then another message came up
and said "A program is trying to automatically send e-
mail on your behalf. Do you want to allow this? If this
is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should
choose 'No'." You have to wait five seconds before you
can click yes and this message comes up for each
recipient. I changed the e-mail format to HTML in the
Options section.

Any ideas?

Create your Word document in HTML format.

With that configuration, you can't block the prompts. The ability to send
HTML format messages with no prompt was added in an Office XP service pack..
