Default mail merge won't print

Which version of Word?

It isn't completely clear what is happening - if you merge to a new
document, can you see anything in the new document?

main document won't copy into notepad.


What are you trying to do at this point?

I can work on the main document, add
to it, etc.. all seems fine until I print or attach.


Are you actually doing the merge (sorry to ask since you're obviously used
to mail merge!)

I have been using mail merge for years to create mailing labels for a
membership database. Now all of a sudden it will not print. I've tried to
send it as an attachment, looks as though it is all there but it is blank.

400
labels for a conference and am panicking


I'm not sure which version of word, I started the document in 2005. I tried to copy the labels onto notepad or send them to someone else to print, but it's like a ghost. when they open the attachment it's not there. Does this mean my main document is corrupt?. I am completting the merge all the way through to the printing stage and all that prints out is blanks
