I have a student report form which is mail merged to an XL sheet for the list
of names. It also has check box fields.
There are 6 students I have selected from the list and with each one I need
to individually check certain boxes.
The trouble is, when I lock the form (little lock icon called 'protect
form') in order to check the box, I can't then use mail merge to advance to
the next student (menu goes dim). Even if I (a) lock the form (b) check the
boxes and then (c) unlock the form, all the students display with the same
boxes checked or unchecked ie not individualized.
So in a nutshell, is it possible to mail merge student names from the XL
sheet then individually check boxes before I print?
