Mailmerge hangs at OpenDataSource
First, I would try
Object oSubType = Word.WdMergeSubType.wdMergeSubTypeWord2000; Next, I would probably try to use a much simpler piece of SQL (SELECT * FROm [mytable] until everything else is sorted out. Next, I would check that the DSN contained everything needed for connection (typically, username and password are not saved in the DSN even though it sometimes appears from the DSN setup that they are. With SQL Server, you should however be OK if you are using Windows Integrated Security. Next, I would probably add an alias name for the /table/ and use it to qualify each field name. -- Peter Jamieson http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk "John G" wrote in message oups.com...

Mailmerge hangs at OpenDataSource
Thanks Peter. I tried countless examples. I took the same example
and did it on another machine and it worked fine. Not sure what it could be.

Mailmerge hangs at OpenDataSource
Does the same DSN work correctly with other software (e.g. Excel, MS Query)
on the original machine? -- Peter Jamieson http://tips.pjmsn.me.uk "John G" wrote in message ups.com... Thanks Peter. I tried countless examples.
