Can someone tell me what the equivalent in W07 is, of when you used to
do a mail merge there was an icon that you clicked that copied the
merged document to a new one (letters.doc by default?). I had to do
that so that when I printed to PDF it came out right, if I tried it
with the "live" document it never worked

however, I cannot find the equivalent of this merge/copy all to new
document in the new version of word.

The copied version is not "live", I suppose it's the equivalent of
paste special->values only or something

cheers
Lee

ps
any good web resources for "if you used to do this in word X, here is
how you now do it in Word 2007"?

While I haven't a clue what you are talking about, the equivalent to merge
to a new document in Word 2007 is from the Mailings tab - Finoish And Merge

> Edit Individual Documents.

If you are creating individual pdfs, you may be interested in the add-in by
fellow MVP Doug Robbins which you can find linked from my web site
