mail merge

[hasti]

I’m trying to merge data from Excel (ver. 2000) into a Word (ver. 2000) document to create a series of emails in Outlook Express (ver. 6).

The process is working but with some glitches:

[1] When I get to the final stage of the merge, Outlook Express asks me to confirm every email that is being sent, despite OE being set not to do so.

[2] I want to automatically add a ‘signature’ (my address details in a font and colour different from the rest of the text) to the end of every message. Where should I set this up, in OE, Word or Excel?

[3] This is the most important one!… The emails are being created in a font not used in any of the constituent documents. How can I set it to create them in the font I want?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
