I'm trying to create a Word 2000 mailmerge from an Access
97 query that will list all open orders by customer.
Consequently, this creates a separate page in the
mailmerge for each record.
I would like the mailmerge to list all open orders, by
customer, on a single page. Each page would be for a
different customer with their orders listed together. If
I have 10 customers, 10 pages would print with their
corresponding orders on each.
Is there a way to do this using Word? Would a newer
version of Word have this capability?
Thanks for your help,
Tom

Hi Tom,
I can't tell you about how this could be done in Word 2K but in Word XP you
would got to Main Document Type on the Mail Merge Toolbar and then change
the document type to directory.
When you now merge to new document you will have no new pages created!
Maybe it's the same (or similar) in Word 2K.
Good Luck!
Regards,
Neil Robbins MCP
