Mail Merge with multiple Receipents in the TO line

Hello,

I would like to do a mail merge where I have multiple people getting the same letter and their names visible in the TO line. I have an access query that is building the email address as follows: ;. I was recently upgraded with a new P.C. running office 2003 and Windows XP Pro. This worked when I was on Windows 2000 Pro with Office 2003. If I copy and paste the email line into the "TO" box in Outlook the email will send.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Rob

What is happening now after I click on the Merge to Electronic mail from Word is when I get to an email line that has more than one item in the Recipient or To line the process stops because it is looking for a match in my global Outlook Address Book. Prior to this, when using SMTP email addreses separated by a ";" the mail merge would run and not look for a match in my address book. I also have learned that some upgrading has been done to my exchange server but I can not tell you what has been done. If this information is needed I can obtain from the server support Tech.

Thanks,

Rob

Way to many variables in this equation to be solved. No way can this be
unraveled in a newsgroup. This is not a simple Outlook issue and may not be
an Outlook issue at all. The data repository and how it has changed, the
Access query structure, and other unspecified changes you have made (like
now mentioning that you used SMTP addresses before and are now using
Exchange addresses) would all be in play here.

Thanks for your reply. One thing that I would like to add is that I have not changed the Access Query structue, it has always used the SMTP address and use to work fine. It is just recently where it has changed where the SMTP address does not seem to work. I am passing the SMTP email address to Outlook but it is opening my address book and no longer recognizing the SMTP format.
