Default Word Merge for an invoice

The person who executes the merge needs to use the add-in. I am not sure if
that is who you mean by the end-user. To my mind the end-user of a mail
merge would be the person(s) who receive the output. The add-in can produce
the output in a number of ways:-

Word document
pdf document
In body of e-mail message
As Word document attached to e-mail message
As pdf document attached to e-mail message

Where an e-mail message is involved, those are automatically sent by the
add-in.

And using the AddIn does the end user also must install the Add In? Or is
it just for the creater of the merge document?

Thank you

The add-in can handle as many fields on the one side as are necessary.
You just need to pick one of them that is unique.

It can certainly handle Account Number, Name and Address and in your
case, you would pick the Account Number as the Key Field as that is the
one that would be unique. (You could have the same name with different
account numbers)

The One is not a reference to a side in any event. It comes from the
merging of Many records into One document.

No I am sorry that will not work...I hve too many fields on the "One"
side to make it work th need it to...

I am really getting frustrated and beat up over getting this to work.

Is there a template or something that I can make this work with?
I am trying to do this in VFP. Maybe I can do it easier with Access?
