Hi,

Is there any way you get the Includetext to automatically
lose the link after the merge without manually breaking
the link later?

Thanks
Lynne

Run a macro containing the command

ActiveDocument.Fields.Unlink

Or, if you only want to unlink the Link fields and leave fields so that they
will update

Dim af As Field
For Each af In ActiveDocument.Fields
If af.Type = wdFieldLink Then
af.Unlink
End If
Next af
