Mail merge from Access, with hyperlink field
I try to mail merge a Word document, from an Access database query,
containing an hyperlink field (file://) I obtain in Word the adress of the field, what i wished would have been its content. Is it better to try solution 1 ou 2 ? 1 : trying to do so that Access exports the content of the hyperlink field, then Word just receives it 2 : trying to do so that Word transforms the adress into text Thank you GC |

Unfortunately, since the proliferation of spam and the resulting posting by
people with an @discussion.microsoft.com "email address", these news groups have become far less personal, so it is nice to receive a note of thanks. -- Thanks and regards, Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Hi ?B?dHJvdWJhZG91cg==?=,
PS : is it usual or annoying (for readers) to say thank you on the forum ? And we especially appreciate it if it's been a puzzling problem, since we then know what it was that actually worked :-) Whether it's unusual or annoying depends to a great extent on the individual forum. Some "techy" groups find it annoying; a waste of time and band-width. In other groups, with a more personal tone, it's tolerated or appreciated (depending on the individuals). This set of groups (word) definitely fall into the "personal" category :-) Cindy Meister |
