Word 2003 had a "letter wizard". Is this in Word 2007?
NickyNoo 12/20/2008 11:52:01 AM
Under Word 2003 I created a home letter template and used the "Letter Wizard"
to populate the subject, greeting and address (from contacts), and signature.
Then all I had to do was type the text of the letter. Under Word 2007 I
cannot find how to do a single letter bringing across the contact details as
before. I understand mail merge but this is not relevant as I only want to do
a single letter to a contact in my outlook contact list.
Help please on how to do this

There are a number of possibilities, not least of which is that if you still
have a copy of the letter wizard it should still work in 2007.

There are however better methods.

1. If Outlook is your default e-mail application you can add the address
book command to the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar)
2. You could investigate creating an automated letter template - see
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm and the methods used to
address it at http://www.gmayor.com/Macrobutton.htm
