Re: Distribution list no show - Word97

You would probably be better asking in an Outlook group.

I suspect what you are attempting is not possible and I cannot remember
whether it was possible to merge to fax with Office 97. If it is, the
procedure is fiddly as you have to copy the required records to a new
contacts list and use that contacts list as the data source for a merge.

I'm trying to send a fax from Word 97. I can send a fax to one
person, but the problem is trying to get a Distribution list to show
up.

Using Contacts in Outlook 97, I've entered the list of 100
organizations and their fax number. I have a Distribution List set up
in a Personal Address Book, visible from Outlook 97.

The problem is in Word 97. When I try to send a fax, using either
Print (or Send to - Fax Recipient) Fax driver shows up in the print
dialog. When I click OK, then the Send Fax Wizard comes up. To enter
the addresses, I click Address Book, but then the list of contacts
and faxes that I entered previously do not show up. The Distribution
List (group) does not show up either.

Can someone tell me how to get the distribution list to show up? Or
can you tell me how to fax from Word, to a distribution list? I'm
using Office97 and Windows 2000 and it does fax correctly to one
person.

Thank you,
Bill
