Merging Data into Differently-Sized Tables
Greetings:
I am a Mac OS X user attempting to merge FileMaker 8 data into Word 2004 for Mac. What I would like to accomplish is to merge records into Word on separate pages with embedded tables for each page. The tables will include names and pertinent information that belong to each record. For example: the names and phone numbers for a number of students in a set of classrooms. Since each classroom has different amounts of students, the tables would be of different size. I will set up my imported data in such a way that the table data (e.g. the student info) is stored in the last fields of each record. Once Word discovers a field of data is blank, it will proceed to the next record. During the mail merge process, I would like Word to generate the appropriately sized tables based on how many fields contain data. Is there an easy way I can use field codes or something comparable to generate the tables? I want to keep this as simple as possible, given I have no scripting experience. Many thanks in advance for any assistance with this problem- Mike Hegedus |
