Lists in Mail Merge
Before executing the merge, run a macro on the mail merge main document that
contains the following command: ActiveDocument.ConvertNumbersToText That will convert the numbers 1 - 8 in your numbered list to ordinary text. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP, originally posted via msnews.microsoft.com "DivaahMom" wrote in message ... I did a letter in Word which had a list numbered 1-8. When I initially merged the document with an Excel file it worked perfectly - each letter had a 1-8 list. Also, as I was editing the output and going in and out of the documents (i actually had 9 variations) I had no problem. Today, when I opened the documents the lists had become one continuous list rather than 1-8 on each page. Ex - the list on the document which had 30 pages - the list on page 2 was 9-16 and so forth until on the last page the last item was 240. When I re-merged the document again it was fine - but I want to save the merged document in its original format. This is a contract and I can't keep re-merging. I am sure that there is something that I need to do in the merge document. Please help! |
