Microsoft strikes again. I received my x51v about a month ago and promptly ran the installation disk. As part of the installation, Outlook 2002 was installed. I have MS Office 2000 and the Outlook 2000 was overwritten with 2002. Now the Christmas holidays are upon us and I figure, time to do the Christmas cards. I use the Outlook mail merge feature to print envelopes from my Outlook contacts. Well, this year, I open Outlook, click on contacts, click on Mail Merge and receive the following message. "To use this feature, you must install the version of Microsoft Word that matches the installed version of Microsoft Outlook." Does anyone have a way around this problem? (Other than buying MS Word 2002)
