Mailmerge code into footers doesn't work
When I connect to Excel and create a mailmerge document and ender a
mailmerge field such as first and las names into the footer and make the merge document a normal one and print preview I see the field names and no longer see the merged data names. I found somewhere one time that there is something you have to do with the code in footers/headers to stop this from happening (a special way coding mailmerge fields in footer and headers) and cannot find that code - anyone out there can help with this? You can email me if you need more information at - thanks |

Mailmerge code into footers doesn't work
What you are probably talking about is unlinking the fields from the data
source. To do that, select them and use Ctrl+Shift+F9 -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
