MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / September 2004Mail Merge to Word from Access
Using a query to merge to word and then merge to a New Document to create a document that is separate. However, when I open up the new document maybe a day later it is still looking for the records in the query. Any ideas? It sounds like you have not actually executed the merge and that all you have done is preview the result in the mail merge main document. You need to execute the merge to a new document. If you are using XP or 2003, I would suggest that you select Toolbars from the View menu and then check the Mailmerge item on the list and then on the Mailmerge toolbar that will be displayed, click on the Merge to new document button on the right hand side of the toolbar.

Any ideas? well, if i execute the merge then my sort options won't be avialable still, i would imagine. because what would mean it has already merged the data and you need to state filter and sort preferences before hand. this only happens in Word 2000. Word 2002 works fine. thanks though >-----Original Message----- >It sounds like you have not actually executed the merge and that all you [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >> when I open up the new document maybe a day later it is >> still looking for the records in the query.
