Mail merge via dde connection
I had to reinstall Office XP recently. I have a word document linked to an
access database via a dde connection. Now when I open the document a window opens with the following: Opening this document will run the following SQL command€¦€¦€¦€¦€¦.Data from your database will be placed in the document. Do you want to continue? I want this to happen automatically without having to confirm this every time. Do you know how? JB |
