Thanks Russ.
I'm using Outlook Express v. 6 for email on Windows XP.
how your Outlook Address Book is configured
Not sure what you mean. So far as I know, it's configured
normally. But in any case, the data source file I am using
for the merge process is a table of names and email
addresses in a Word document.
list precise steps employed
I'm following the instructions of the Mail Merge Helper.
Everything works as described (choosing the Email option)
until the final step, when I am asked to click the "Merge"
button to set the whole process in motion. According to
the "Help" instuctions, that's the end. However, for me, a
small untitled window appears with an empty text field
and "OK" and "Cancel" buttons. None of these seems to have
any effect. Once the little window closes, there is no
sign that a merge or email dispatch has occurred.

No suggestions possible until you list your versions and precise steps
employed.
List your default mail program and how your Outlook Address Book is
configured as well.
There are a lot of resources to help you on the Web. The Word MVP's maintain

I'm trying to create a "merged" letter to send to multiple
recipients via email.
After following all the steps in the merge helper, I click
the final "Merge" button and get a small window with no
title, no available help, buttons for 'OK' and 'Cancel'
and an empty box to fill in. No matter what I do, the box
closes and the 'Merge' fails to happen.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
