Hello,

I am having dificulty sorting a mail merge document
(before I actually merge the information to a new
document).  I am using MS Word 2000 with Win 98se and
merging from an Access address database.

I do the beginning steps to set up the merge, insert my
fields, and then click on "Mail Merge Helper."  Then by
the big Number 3 I click on "Query Options,"  but only
the "Filter Records" tab is accessable.  The "Sort
Records" tab is grayed out.  

I have saved the Access file with the sort options that I
want, but whenever I start a merge it is not sorted the
way Access sorts all of the records.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!  Thanks.
