I recently upgraded to XP operating system and Office XP.

Using WORD I used to be able to access the data form to
edit data, from the document. It seemed self contained
although the data could interface with EXCEL.

Now my data base is in ACCESS, which I purchased with
Office XP. I have never used ACCESS and do not know how to
get my data entry form back, while in Word, like I used to.

When I select the database form button, I get the merge
fields delimiters instead.
I also get the merge field delimiter pop-up where it
belongs on the button pad.

Please help specific to my problem or guide me through the
process of tracking in down from the HELP menu, SEARCH.

Thank You to those in the know who are willing to share!!!!
Please send replies to dslow@wcnet.org

Hi Darri,

You're creating the database from within Word's mail merge
facility?

Then try displaying the "Recipients" dialog box, then click
on "Edit".
