    Mail Merge Using Outlook Express

    This is a question on Outlook Express, apologies for posting here but people have been so helpful on Excel questions in the past I thought I'd try. If anyone wants to point me at another forum that's fine.

    I'm trying to find out how to do a mail merge using OE. I want individual emails sent, rather than emails with multiple addresses. I currently have names (surname and forename in seperate columns) and email addresses in an Excel spreadsheet, but could export this if necessary. I then want to add a fixed Subject for the email, and a forename as part of the greeting, followed by fixed text. No attachments are needed, or any fancy text formatting.

    Is this possible with OE. Can someone explain how, or point me to a source of help?

    (I have tried google, but it just find Outlook solutions).

    Thanks

    I think one of the limitations of Outlook Express is that you aren't able to do full blown email merges like you can with the full version of Outlook and Word although I've never used OE so not 100% sure.
