    What is the trick to doing a mail merge with Access record data that
uses a combo-box for storing/looking up data?
    My problem is that if I do a mail merge, a number is displayed in
fields that are used to ordinarily display other data (in the Access
database), such as names.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Word can only use a "flat" data source.

Please respond to the Newsgroup for the benefit of others who may be
interested.   Questions sent directly to me will only be answered on a paid
consulting basis.

Hope this helps,
