Problem: "Insert Merge Field" button is greyed-out
I am trying to create a WORD 2003 mail merge document and I want to insert an
address merge field. The "Insert Word Field" button is active, however, the "Insert Merge Field" button to the left of it, that I need, is greyed out. How can I activate the "Insert Merge Field" button? I will appreciate advice. |
