Is there a way to create a "personalized" form/template in Outlook 2007?

Question

Is there any way to create a "personalized" template in Outlook 2007?

In Microsoft Word, you can specify form fields via Mail Merge, so you can start a letter like "Hello «FirstName»", and it will populate the «FirstName» field with data from the recipients list. Is there a way to do something similar with Outlook templates and the Global Address List?

Answer 1

The mail merge feature of Microsoft Word supports sending e-mail and using Outlook as a source for contact information. Simply use mail merge as you would normally but instead select "e-mail" instead of "letter" as the output format, and choose "Outlook contacts" as your recipient source.
