SYMPTOMS

After you install the "Works in Word Add-in" that ships with Microsoft Works Suite 2000, the Mail Merge command on the Tools menu in Microsoft Word 2000 changes. Rather than opening the Mail Merge Helper, it opens a submenu that has the following commands:
  • Document Type
  • Data Source (dimmed)
  • Select Names (dimmed)
  • Filter and Sort (dimmed)
  • Options
The Options command opens the Word Mail Merge Helper.

RESOLUTION

To restore the original Mail Merge command on the Tools menu, run the Works in Word Add-in Setup program in Maintenance mode and click Remove to remove the add-in files. To do this, follow these steps:

NOTE: This removes all Works templates and tasks from the Works Task Launcher and removes Works enhancements from Word.
  1. On the Windows taskbar, click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
  2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
  3. On the Install/Uninstall tab, select Works in Word Suite Add-in.
