Default Multipule recipients to for Mail Merge from Access Query

I have a Access Query named "Credit Approvers" . This query lists the Credit
Approvers by thier Portfolio ID. There are several Portfolio ID's that have
more than one credit approver so there are many instances where the same
Portfolio ID is listed several times but with different Credit Approvers. Is
there a way to create a mail merge that will send only 1 email per Portfolio
ID but include all of the Credit Approvers in the "To" line? The Credit
Approvers field lists their respective email address.

In addition, is there a way for me to designate the "From" filed in the mail
merge and also add a "CC:" recpient?

Thanks so much in advance!
-Rich

Hi Rich,

AFAIK, you can't use the CC or BCC fields in an email merge.

For the basic merge, though, what you're describing sounds like the equivalent of a Catalog merge, but to email. To see how you
might go about this, check out my Word 97-2007 Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial at:
http://www.wopr.com/index.php?showtopic=731107
or
http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip
Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.

Hi Macropod ,

I cannot seem to get your article to work

This is my issue

I have the field Pordtfolio_ID list many times becasue there are a many USER
(field) that corrispond to the Portfolio ID (can be up to 7 or 8 users to the
same porfolio id)

I want the first line of my Mail Merge to list all of the USER for each
Portfolio ID

I cannot seem to get it to work

is there any direction you can give me?

THanks!

Hi Rich,

The tutorial includes an example showing how to have a multi-column layout (page 4), which can easily be adapted to allow a
single-line output. For your task, you'd use the Pordtfolio_ID field for the key.
