Word mailmerge - Visual Basic experts please help!
If you remove the
objApp.Visible = False and perhaps replace it with obj.App.Activate though that may not be necessary, I think that the result of the merge will be visible I do not understand the following part of your code: Dim intSplitName As Integer Dim intLength As Integer intLength = Len(strDocName) intSplitName = InStrRev(strDocName, "\", , vbTextCompare) strDocName = Right(strDocName, intLength - intSplitName) objApp.Windows(strDocName).Activate objApp.ActiveWindow.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges If you want to close the mail merge main document without saving it, just use: strDocName.Close wdDoNotSaveChanges -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Murray Muspratt-Rouse" wrote in message ... Murray Muspratt-Rouse;358691 Wrote: I do not speak VBA! I have managed to stop Word from displaying Save As but have finished up with the Word document displayed, but not the result of the merge. I have tried inserting the code for "MailMergeAfterMerge(ByVal Doc As Document, ByVal DocResult As Document)" but that fails. What I would like is to have the merge result alone displayed. I attach the VBA module exported as .bas in a zip file since copying it as text into Word came out too large. Many thanks in advance for your help Murray To explain: - I have recently been asked by a UK charity to help update their system. I have 'inherited' what has been constructed for them in Access, with use of Word Mail Merge, controlled by a Visyal Basic module. I was asked to upgrade to MS Office 2007. As I got it the mail merge process ended with a Save As display, the original document and the resuilt of the merge. What I want to achieve is the display of the merge result alone. By adding SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges I have got rid of the Save As display, but now only the original document appears, which allows preview of the result of the merge. I did not include the VBA code in my original post, because I thought that would break the rules. I append it below.
