mail merge and Notes field in Contacts

G

giganews

I'm trying to do a mail merge using MS Word to printout a bunch of address
labels. I used the Notes field on the Other tab of my address book as a key
for quickly searching for groups of people since the Find feature in Address
Book supports searching on the Notes field.

However, now that I'm trying to do a mailmerge, I want to once again use the
Notes field as the query criteria for my merge. however, there is apparently
no Notes field available!? Has anyone else encountered this problam and how
did you solve it?

My thoughts are: I should move my key value from the notes field into
something that is part of the mail merge criteria, such as the Spouse field,
but I dont want to do this manually for all of my records. Any suggestions
here? I would consider using a macro, but im a noob when it comes to the
object hierarchy of Outlook (I am a programmer with other things however).

Thanks in advance
Bill
