Word 2003 and Access 2003 Mail Merge question
I know that I posted this in the Access general questions, but I have not
gotten a response. New install of XP Pro (service pack 2), Office 2003 Pro on a dual 1000mhz P-III system with 1gb memory. I had an Access 2000 DB running prior to upgrade for an organization. Used to be able to do mail merge from word and access to produce letters. Now I try to re-create the word doc and select a source and I can open the DB but it only shows certain queries and all tables. Does anyone know why it will not show all of my queries? I have a total of 29 queries defined in the DB but only 12 will show when I try to do the merge. |

From the Tools menu, select Options and then go to the General tab and check
the "Confirm conversions at open" item. Then try the other methods of connecting to the data source that will become available to you. -- Please respond to the Newsgroup for the benefit of others who may be interested.
