recipient list
Assuming your list was saved as a .mdb and you have Excel, try opeining the
..mdb in Excel and reporting from there. Otherwise, create a Directory type mailmerge in Wor, then create a one-row table with as many cells as there are columns in your recipient list, and put the appropriate MERGEFIELD field in each cell. You'll probably need to use a landscape layout. Merge to a new document. There are obviously other ways you could lay out a directory merge (e.g. one field per line, perhaps with the document formatted as two columns). e.g. Firstname:tab«Firstname» LastName:tab«Lastname» or if you are looking at the underlying field codes, Firstname:tab{ MERGEFIELD Firstname } LastName:tab{ MERGEFIELD Firstname } where you set up the tabs so that the entries are aligned the way you want. However, if you have many blank fields that is sometimes wasteful, so you can either use { IF { MERGEFIELD Firstname } = "" "" " Firstname:tab{ MERGEFIELD Firstname }" }{ IF { MERGEFIELD Lastname } = "" "" " Lastname:tab{ MERGEFIELD Laststname }" } etc. or in Word 2002 (XP) or later you can use { MERGEFIELD Firstname \b "Firstname:tab" } { MERGEFIELD Lastname \b "Lastname:tab" } All the {} need to be the special field code braces that you can enter using ctrl-F9 -- Peter Jamieson http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk "clamdog" wrote in message ...
