Default Using Outlook 2002 contacts with Word 2003

I found a similar post from a couple years ago, but it didn't quite
address my problem. I have Word 2003 (SP2), Outlook 2002 (SP2) using
an Exchange Server account. Outlook is my default message program, and
I have two lists within the address book, but when I go to look at the
settings of the book itself, all that is listed is the Outlook Address
Book of MAPI type.

I would like to be able to use my contacts from Outlook in the
envelope/label feature of Word. The error message I receive is
"Address Book Failu 'Unspecifed Error'. Check your Mail setup. You
must have Extended MAPI version 1.0 or higher to use this feature."

I've completed Microsoft Updates as recently as this morning. Any
hints?

Thanks,
Achez

No hints. Just the fact that has been posted here countless times. Versions
must match. Yours don't.
