Mail Merge Failure
Word 2003 latest updates
I have a Mail merge document that every time the user opens it I want it to perform a merger. The document is not complex. It has something close to 40 fields on it What happens is the user selects certain records to merge then I save those records out to a database with a view attached to the records. I want the program to shell a Mail Merger template out and have word perform a mail merge immediately at start up. I get a number of errors Opening this document will run the following command MY SQL Statement into the database Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you want to continue? I click 'yes' and then I get Record 1 contained too few data fields. Record 2 contained too few data fields. Record 1 contained too few data fields. Then I get a box that says invalid merge fields. I cancel through all the fields and the document comes up with all sorts of errors. Fine however if I run this macro specific after the document has opened it runs fine no changes? What's happening how come I get errors running the Marco right away versus waiting until the document is completely loaded? |
