I have Outlook 2002 and Microsoft Word 2002. After reading another post, I
tried starting a mail merge from the Outlook folder into Word. I defined my
Outlook Folder view to show only the 4 fields I wanted to merge in a Table
View. They are the only fields visible in that folder. When I go to
Tools>Mail Merge and select “All contacts in current view†and “Contact
fields in current viewâ€and click OK, a Word document pops up, but when I
click on “Edit recipient list†in the Mail Merge Wizard or on the toolbar,
the Recipient List has these extra Field columns that I don’t know how to get
rid of: Due by, Flag Status, Message Class, Outlook Internation Version,
Read, Sensitivity, and Subject. These extra columns are not in my Outlook
folder and they are not added to the Show these fields in this order list—it
only has the 4 fields I want. So how do I remove Fields that are not listed?
When I tried doing the mail merge with these extra columns, I checked each
Preview Letter to make sure the merged field was correct, then I also chose
to edit individual merged letters and each page was correct. Due to a memory
problem while spooling to my printer, Word shut down. When I brought it back
up Word recovered an “OMM†file that was created to do the merge. It had all
the Fields—including the extra ones I did not want—listed at the top, and
each record also had all those extra fields. After Word shut down, the
printer began printing what had been spooled and fortunately none of the
extra field codes’ data actually printed, but I still had rather those extra
codes not appear. How do I get rid of them?
