Hi ?B?VmljdG9yIExhemxv?=,

Working with Word merge and MS Access 2002 which would be the best data
source when linking a query to merge documents, OLE, DDE or ODBC??

Depends to a certain extent on the type of query, and whether the database
is set to ANSI-89 or ANSI-92. For "plain" SELECT queries and ANSI-89 use
ODBC. For ANSI-92, use OLE DB. For "prompt" queries use DDE.
