Hi
I'm not sure which version of Outlook and Word you are using. In Outlook XP (2002), if you open your contact list there is a Mail Merge option on the Tools menu. I haven't used it myself but that might do what you're looking for.
The other way would be to export your contacts list into Excel and mail merge to word using the Excel spreadsheet.
Cheers
Karen

If you use the mail merge wizard - by selecting Tools>Letters & Mailing>Mail Merge a box will appear on the right hand side of the screen.
On step 3 it asks for recipients. One of the options is Select from Outlook Contacts
I don't use Outlook so I haven't tested this particular option, but am quite familiar with Merges so I think it will do exactly what you want. I am assuming it will allow you to place a check mark next to all the contacts to want to merge - similiar to how it does an access DB.
Let us know how it goes.
