Can you say a little bit more about what you are actually doing? (Mentioning
the version of Word and what the data source is usually helps, too). If your
documents all specify a particular data source, you should not need to
re-open the data source - it should be done automatically each time you open
a document that uses it - although these days you may face additional
security-related dialog boxes. If you have to "re-open" for each document,
that suggests you are actually using a different data source for each set of
merges.

In my work, I routinely set up one record in my data source and merge that
info into multiple documents.
But I have to re-open the datasource each time I open one of the
documents.
Is there a way to open the datasource and have it stay open for each
document I open?
Thanks,
