Doug,

I have a related question to "thenin". Basically, I am researching the
process to utilize the data on an html page in IE and perform a mail merge
to
a word document to create a letter.
I did find one article in the KB
http://support.microsoft.com/default...22120121120120
but was wondering if there are alternate or newer solutions which have
been
developed.

thanks in advance for your help.

I think that you are probably running up against the limitation that Word
has on the number of columns in a table. For that reason, data sources
created through the mailmerge wizard in Word XP and later are saved as
.mdb
(Access) files where the limit is 256 fields.

Hello
Have a problem here and I have not found anything about this on MS
Office
Support site.

We use a generated HTML file as a datasource for the Mail Merge from
our
application.

The problem arizes when the number of Merge Fields defined in the HTML
file
exceeds 63(!).

After I open the datasource in Merge Document I can see only first 63
Merge
Fields in the 'Insert Merge Field' dialog. And the 63rd merge field
name
is
composed of the names of merge fields which come after the 62th
field(!)

However when I use the comma-separated file or an SQL datasource I do
not
experience any problems - I have tried with datasources with more than
100
fields.

Do you happen to know what the problem may be?
