Provide option to hide Mail Merge Task Pane
I used Word 97 for several years, and recently upgraded to Word 2003. I find
the Mail Merge Task Pane to be a major irritant. I'm sure it's good for new users, but for those of us who use Mail Merge weekly, having the Task Pane appear for every saved merge document rather than the Toolbar is just plain frustrating. |

It *doesn't* appear for me. It's appearing when you just open a mail merge
main document? I have a hard enough time getting the Mail Merge toolbar to appear. Perhaps that's because I've got the task pane turned off using the Task Pane Controller (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...owTaskPane.htm).
