Default How do I change a mail merge to a new document

You should be able to attach the same daa source to several different
documents, and save and close each of those "Mail Merge Main Documents", one
at a time. Then you should be able to open those documents, one at a time,
and perform the merges. Whether you can open more than one at a time will
probably depend partly on the data source (I am not sure about this as far
as Word 97 is concerned) because of locking issues.

But I am not completely sure what you are actually trying to do. Can you go
through, step-by-step?

I am running XP and use 97 Office. I run alot of mailmerges and need to use
a
data source for 4 different documents. How can I change to a new document
when the mail merge is running after printing one of the document.
I have tried using MailMerge Helper Change document without success.
