What causes field calculation errors in mail merge?
I have experienced receiving that error message when using a field
construction such as: { IF { REF Check } "{ MERGEFIELD itemnumber } { MERGEFIELD itemprice } " "{ MERGEFIELD itemnumber } { MERGEFIELD itemprice }¶ " }{ SET Check "{ MERGEFIELD itemnumber } { MERGEFIELD itemprice }" } But after clicking on the OK button to dismiss the error message, the merge executes as required. -- Hope this helps.

I believe that particular problem occurs when the { SET } field has been
inserted but not actually executed. At that point there is no "Check" bookmark, so the REF field causes an error. After the { SET } field has been executed once, the error disappears.

Hi Shelley,
What is the field coding that generates the error? If it uses any REF fields, what's the coding for the source fields too? Cheers "Shelley78" wrote in message ... Merging a document and I get the following Mail Merge message: A field calculation error occured in record 1. |
