Thank you for responding. The Text Form Fill Object is I believe a GUI object
that is embedded into a word document to gather data for a database of some
sort like Access. The Text Form Fill Object houses a field for entering text
and other fields such as the font, size, a link to the parent document. I
haven't found much from Microsoft on the subject to explain further. The
document that I am using has several of these Text Form Fill Objects in it.
So far, I have to enter that data by hand into the text field. If there is a
way to enter that tabled data in to the object by use of macro or some other
means then I am open to try it since I have a large volume of data to enter.

Thank you, again,

Earl

I tried the directory mail merge and it works great for filling a table.
However, I still have a problem. I need to get the data that is in the
table
into a Text Fill Form Object. Can you suggest how this can be accomplished
either from mail merge or macro script?

Thank you again,

Earl

To developers:

I have a mail merge question for someone who can assist me. I have an
excel
'03 file which has about 10 columns of data with about 300 rows. I have
a
need to move this data using mail merge to a word file to fill unique
text
form fill objects that are housed into a different format within word
'03.
I
have the F1-F10 match the column data to the word text form fill
objects
in
the order of the word table. The mail merge works. Except instead of
filling
lines in the word table, mail merge makes 300 tables rather than the
300
rows
in the one table. So, what can be done to make mail merge work to map
rows
in
the one table rather than 300 tables?

Thank you in advance,

Earl Jackson
