I have created a user form that will be used by employee's to update their
home addresses, emergency contact information, etc. I have extracted data
from PeopleSoft into an excel spreadsheet. I would like to populate fields
that contain "current" information with data from excel. I would then like
the users to use the form to make changes in the "New" information sections.

Populating is not a problem. I cannot retain the "form" functionality. Is
there a work around? Using MS word 2003.

Formfields cannot be used in conjunction with mailmerge. Why don't you just
provide a table at the end of the maindocument into which each recipient can
enter any updated information.

Hope this helps.
