[Locusta]

Hello,

I would like to use Word for printing the documents from our C# application.
I know how to create a template in Word using the schema of my xml source,
but I cannot easily find how to present the XML data to the word document and
do the mailmerge. All samples I have found so far are based on SQL statements.

My output document is for example an invoice, with one-to-many relationships.

Any suggestion is very welcome

Regards,
Dirk

Sounds like you are probably trying to perform a "multiple items per
condition (=key field)" mailmerge which Word does not really have the
ability to do:

See the "Group Multiple items for a single condition" item on fellow MVP

Or take a look at the following Knowledge Base Article
