Merged data in Word 2003
I've come up with this problem many times & it's always seemed to right
itself. Except now. I'm using a Word document. I've created a Merged Document from that document. I've set up an .mdb for that merged document. Now, in most mail merges I've done, when I click on "next write your letter" it takes me right to the .mdb so I can put in the info. But, with this document I'm working on, I click "next write your letter" & then have to go find the .mdb to attach it to the document. & then, when I go back to the document (after saving it in the format with the .mdb attached) I have to find the .mdb again. How do I get it to find its own .mdb that I've already attached to it several times? What am I doing wrong & how can I correct it to make it right? Any help would be appreciated. -- Sharon |

Is the data source located on a network with a long path name?
