See fellow MVP Macropod's "Word 97-2007 Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge
Tutorial" at: http://www.wopr.com/index.php?showtopic=731107 or http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it as you must get the mail merge main document set up exactly as required. -- Hope this helps.

How can I merge multiple spreadsheet enteries into one word do
Hi Doug,
I have used the very useful tutorial you referenced. I added text after te repeated data. I have added a the key field as part of the text. The problem is that fr that specific field, the value returned is the next field in the data base. Where has it is te correct field in th repeated area. Here's an example: Dear X, Repeating data...with keyfield "productcompany" showing fine. Text after repeaed data.... On belhaf of "productcompany" . The problem is when in the repeated data part , the field value returns item i of the bdatabase, the same field is showing item 2 of the database in the text afer the repeated data. Thanks for your help.

Hi App,
Have you copied the field from the tutorial to the sample mailmerge main document to see how this works in practice? Whilst the trailing text is indeed attached to the start of the following record, the field formatting ensures the output presents the trailing text as part of the record to which it relates from the end-user's viewpoint. -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "APP" wrote in message ...

Hi Doug,
If I understand the article correctly, your new method only works with Excel data sources. Is that correct? -- Cheers macropod [Microsoft MVP - Word] "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote in message ...

It currently only works with Excel 97-2003 format data sources. Your
tutorial is linked from the page. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "macropod" wrote in message ...

Hi Paul,
Yes, the code was written for use with an Excel 97-2003 data source. While most other data sources could be copied/pasted/exported to that format, it would not be too difficult to come up with code for use with a Word datasource. For data in Access. it can certainly be exported to Excel. -- Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP Please reply only to the newsgroups unless you wish to obtain my services on a paid professional basis.
