Outlook will not mail merge.

Help! Is there a person at Microsoft that can help me?
I have office xp and I can not get outlook or office xp
to mail merge. I have worked on this for days. The
problem started when I mail merged some labels. Now, it
will pull up the document but will not complete the
merged. I have called two computer stores and they told
me to reinstall it. But it still does the same thing and
will not merge. Should I give up on you to? Can you
help me? I am so frustrated!!! John

I'm using Mail Merge in Outlook 2003, following the
directions, get to the Word. It doesn't automatically
open the data source. After I hit set-up, then try to
open data source I get a could not find schdmapi.dll. I
close Word 2003 I get a could not open data source error
message waiting for me in Outlook. I've tried utilizing
the support template only help that found me was the
startup folder add-ins do not exist.
Had to utilize husbands Windows XP to do Mail Merge with
my data .pst file.

What's your take on it?
