Hi, Peter,
Thank you VERY much for your info! Wow! It worked! It worked if I menually do the steps as the article described. Now I know what is causing the problem. My users would like me to have an automated report. They basically wants to click a button from VB and have the word reports ready for them. In the VB program, there are about 30 more reports. My mail merge is quite complex. VB created several Temp Doc from mailmerge template and finally copy and paste it together into another doc. I will keep looking into code for fix since now I know what is causing the problem. If you have other sugestions, please let me know! Thank you very much!

Not sure what else you need to fix but if the documents are user-defined
maybe you will have to examine them in code before the merge, and if you don't like having loads of unnecessary section breaks in the output you might be able to remove them programmatically.
