Mail Merge with Bookmarks
I am attempting to have a list of bookmarks in a seperate document (doc1)
with text and mergfields allocated to this bookmark and I am then trying to merge the bookmarks into multiple other documents (doc1, doc2, doc3 etc) by using the bookmark that is allocated. I am trying to do this without much success to try and save me time as I may want to change some of the information in the bookmark from time to time and rather than go through 200 different documents I think this would be easier. Can this be done in this way and if it is how do I get the mergefield to merge a bookmark from another document? Thanks Martin |

Mail Merge with Bookmarks
Bookmarks must be unique. The merge process will strip bookmarks in the
merge document. Depending on what you are doing, you may be able to use includetext or autotext fields to insert the data - the method is similar to that at http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_graphics.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org fisherman152 wrote: I am attempting to have a list of bookmarks in a seperate document (doc1) with text and mergfields allocated to this bookmark and I am then trying to merge the bookmarks into multiple other documents (doc1, doc2, doc3 etc) by using the bookmark that is allocated.
