Hello!
I am having a small proplem. In the 2002 version of office I am able to set
a query, to merge only certain criteria, but in Office 2003 I have not been
able to find this option. Can anyone help? The other thing is, I noticed
everytime I want to set up a merge doc. I have to either use the mail merge
tool bar or the wizard. In the 2002 version, there was an option under
tools, then you could click "Mail Merge" and the process was much simpler.
Do you if there is a was to get this option in 2003?
Thanks for any help you can give!

Hi =?Utf-8?B?TGF1cmE=?=,

Word 2002 and 2003 essentially have the identical mail merge interface. Perhaps
you're remembering Word 2000?

In the Mail Merge FAQ on my website there's a section on Word 2002/2003. In
there you'll find a list of the old interfaces, and how you can get them back.
