In Word or Publisher, create the document or the publication that you want to use as the basis for your mail merge.

Start the mail merge. In Word, on the Mailings tab, click the Start Mail Merge button, and choose the type of merge you want. In Publisher, point to Mail And Catalog Merge on the Tools menu, and choose the type of merge you want.

Step through the mail merge process, specifying that you’ll be using your Outlook Contacts list as your data source. If prompted, specify the Outlook profile (the Outlook account) you want to use, and, in the Select Data Source dialog box, double-click the Contacts folder you want to use.

In the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box that appears in Publisher (or that appears in Word when you click the Edit Recipient List), make any necessary changes to specify which records you want to be included. Click OK.

Insert the fields from the Contacts list into your document or publication, and format the fields as you want them to appear in the final document or publication.

Complete the mail merge setup, check for errors, and then execute your merge.
