Default INCLUDETEXT

The INCLUDETEXTed document should not need to be set up as a MailMerge Main
document with a data source. When it contains MERGEFIELD fields, they take
their values from the data source attached to the "master" document. The
main benefit to having the included document also attached to the data
source is probably that it lets you use the mailmerge "insert field" toolbar
stuff to modify your included document.

In 2003 I could use INCLUDETEXT to call another document or documents
into a
'master 'document. That secondary document is linked to the same data file
as
the master and includes mergefields from that data file.In 2003 the merge
works perfectly and pulls in the approopriate seconary document or
documents
for each record. In 2007 I set up the docs in the same way, BUT when the
merge runs it stops at EVERY record to inform me that that the secondary
document is linked to the data file and requires me to click OK. Any
ideas?
