I have a letter I created in Word 2003 a few weeks ago that uses a query
(NOT a Word query, but an Access query) in ms Access 2003 (2k format). This
was working fine a couple of weeks ago. I've changed the query around a bit
to modify how the address is put together. Now when I try to go to Word I
get expected errors (field name changes in the query). So I tried to change
the datasource but it never gives me the opportunity to select a table or a
query. It just assumes the one table I have in the mdb. No otpions come up
at all. So I added a 2nd dummy table to see what would happen. Now a dialog
comes up asking me to choose 1 of the 2 tables. But it doesn't even include
the query at all. Why would it do this? The query runs fine inside ms
Access. How do I correct this problem? I ran a compact/repair on the mdb
just to see if that would fix anything but it didn't help. So I created a
dummy query based on the dummy table and that query does show up in the
list. So there's something about my MS Access query now that MS Word is
throwing up about. I added my primary key to the query output and that
didn't help either. I'm at a loss here. I think Word doesn't like my
functions. If I create a query without the fuctions (like fncCSZ which
simply concatenates city & state & zip with commas and spaces) it notices
the query. Why would it not like the functions? That sort of sucks. Here's
my query:

SELECT tblLawyers.LawyerID, Trim([ContactPrefix] & " " & [ContactFN] & " " &
[ContactMI] & IIf(IsNull([ContactMI]),"",". ") & [ContactLN] & ", Esq.") &
Chr(13) & Chr(10) & IIf(Not IsNull([OfficeName]),[OfficeName] & Chr(13) &
Chr(10),"") & fncStackAddrLines(4,[Addr1],[Addr2],[Addr3],[Addr4]) & Chr(13)
& Chr(10) & fncCSZ([City],[StateCode],[ZipCode]) AS ContactAndOffice,
tblLawyers.ContactFN
FROM tblLawyers
WHERE (((tblLawyers.DontIncludeInMailings)=False))
ORDER BY tblLawyers.ContactLN, tblLawyers.ContactFN;
