I am trying to merge 8,000 letters with postal barcodes. I can get the barcode to print in Envelopes Merge, but I need to be able to have the barcode merge into a text box in a form letter. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

1. You can't use a text box, but you could use a FRAME (from the Forms
toolbar)
2. Create an envelope merge using the same datasource as for the letters
you want to send. Now COPY the barcode line from the envelope main merge
document and PASTE it where you want it in the letter.
