"Envelopes & Labels" button to Outlook 2003
How can I add the "Envelopes & Labels" button which is found in Word 2003 to
OUTLOOK 2003 so that I can quickly and simply print a simple envelope? |

Well you can't. They are separate programs that do not have interchangeable
menus. Since you can do this far more easily from Word, why would you want to start the process from Outlook? To do this from Outlook you'd have to create an entire mail merge just for one envelope. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Honormedal" wrote in message ...

I wanted to start the process from Outlook because I simply wanted to mail a
check to someone, and I have their address in my contacts without having to go back and forth between copy & paste to Word. The Sharp Wizard software had this which is what I used before outlook, and I used the envelope feature quite often. I appreciate your time for your response.

I don't understand.
There is no moving back and forth or cutting and pasting when you do this from Word. Word automatically pulls the data from Outlook. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "honormedal" wrote in message ...

Dear Russ, I tried doing an envelope directly from Word; clicked on the
address book icon, and received the following messages: 1. Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default Mail Client. 2. "Logon failed. You must log on to Microsoft Exchange to access your address book. Error Code "Unspecified Error". ..... So your message IS helping, I had not tried this before. Would you please help me get information on how to fix problem #1. I'm in hopes that if #1 is fixed, #2 might not be an issue. Thank You "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: I don't understand. There is no moving back and forth or cutting and pasting when you do this from Word.

Indeed. You have now defined your problem. You do not have your Outlook
Address Book configured. You also must have a valid mail transport in your default Outlook profile and Outlook must be your default mail client.
