Archived from groups: microsoft>public>word>mailmerge>fields (more info?)

I'm performing an email merge using Outlook and Access 2003. Is there a way,
through the merge process, to set the "from" field in the email to one of two
email addresses I'm authorized to use (i.e., the one that is not my default)?
Thanks!

There is no way to do it through mail merge. The only way that it can be
done is in the mail program to make the required address the default address
while the merge is being executed.

Hope this helps.

Thank you, Doug. So IO should be able to make my one address the default,
then perform the merge, and then change it back to my normal address?
