MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / May 20063 of 683 entries from db show in mail merge
When using mail merge in Word, only 3 of the 683 db (Works database) entries show up as available for the merge Can we have some more details of what you have set up? What type of mail merge main document, what version of Word, etc.  SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

All of my other databases will merge in their entirety. The same thing occurs when I try to use the database from a backup cd. Only the first 3 entries in the database appear on the merge. I have tried with all of the entries in the database checked and unchecked. > Can we have some more details of what you have set up?

If that works, to get around the problem, you could add a row at the top of the table that is produced and insert field names into the cells in that row and then save that document and use it as the data source. I am assuming of course that you have the label merge document set up correctly with the merge fields in all cells and a <<Next Record>> field before the first mergefield in all cells except the first and that you are actually executing the merge.
