Individual Merge Letters
The Word add-in template MMtoDocsRev19.dot from Doug Robbins, in Graham Mayor
website, is great and it would be very useful to me. I think that there is just a little problem, a blank additional page at the end of each saved document. Thus anyone know how to solve this problem? By the way, thus anyone know in what is the add-in based? Counting sections or counting registers? I'm a complete ignorant in VBA, so I'm not able to understand the code. Thank you very much for your attention. Serafim Bragança Mendes Santos - São Paulo - Brasil |

Individual Merge Letters
The add-in is written in Visual Basic for Applications.
As it contains a command to change the section break at the end of each letter from the next page section break that is inserted by default during the mailmerge operation, to a continuous section break, it should not result in a blank page at the end of each letter unless, the last page containing text is completely full. If that is the case, you could try decreasing the margins slightly of the Normal.Dot template to provide more space on the page. -- Hope this helps.

Individual Merge Letters
Mr. Doug,
First of all, thanks for your time. The margins of my letter are different from those in Normal.dot. For now, the pages are almost empty. I'm using less than 1/3 of the space. I've tried many alternatives and I always get a blank page. Today I noticed that the margins of the additional blank page are different from those of my letter, but are equal to those of Normal.dot. My letter has two pages, and the first page has a continuous section break (if I take this continuous section break the problem is the same). The header has {NUMPAGES OF SECTIONSPAGE} and in the additional page we see 3 of 1. Is this information useful?

Individual Merge Letters
Mr. Doug,
Complementing my previous information, it seems that the problem is occurring because my letter is paper size A4 (21 x 29,7 cm) and my Normal.dot was paper size Letter (21,59 x 27,94 cm). I've changed my Normal.dot to paper size A4 and everything seems OK (but I will do more tests). Why? "Serafim" escreveu: Mr. Doug, First of all, thanks for your time.
