Mail Merge Print Range Problem
In Word 2003 SP2 I can only print a range of records by typing the range as
e.g. s11-s13 for pages 11 to 13. It seems not able to interpret the Section Break (New Page) as a page. Without the s prefix, nothing prints. Also when asking it to print all records it stops after so many for no apparent reason. Why is this? Thanks for any help. Chris |

Mail Merge Print Range Problem
The document created by executing a formletter to a new document is divided
into Sections. Therefore, to print part of it, it is necessary to specify which Sections you want to print which is the reason for using the "s" As the numbering of the pages in each section starts at 1, and there are less than 11 pages in each section, pages 11 to 13 do not exist and therefore nothing will print if you specify just 11 to 13. How are you asking it to print all records? Does the data for all records appear in the document created by executing the mailmerge? -- Hope this helps.

Mail Merge Print Range Problem
Thank you - I now understand the sections. I went back to my client about
the printing stopping after so many pages, but he is not having the problem with other documents, so maybe the one document had a corruption or something. Please therefore consider my problem solved and thanks again. Chris "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: The document created by executing a formletter to a new document is divided into Sections.
