Mail Merge Recipients box does not work
I was recently forced to upgrade to Office 2003 from Office 2000 (lost original disk), which has given me no end of problems. Primarily, the new mail merge simply does not work if I attempt to filter more than one field in the mail merge recipients dialogue box (either by using the drop down menu, or the ‘advanced’ filter option). The list displays correctly in the box, but when I click OK and return to my merge document, the correctly filtered listing appears for a fraction of a second, then flips back to unfiltered (or partly-filtered) data. This has been driving me crazy. It worked perfectly well in Office 2000, and I have about a dozen different mail merge label documents, none of which now work. I have tried rebuilding new documents from scratch, but the merge just won’t work with my database. Now I have an Access database with 1000 addresses which I can’t use or filter for my magazine subscription labels and Christmas card labels, etc. Any advice much appreciated. Softwa Windows XP. Word 2003. Database is Access 2003 (I even tried converting the format from 2000 to 2003 format). -- Gary -- millidgePosted from - http://www.officehelp.in |
