I was wondering if a word document is capable of having two separate text
files as data sources. I'm exporting 2 text files from an application that we would then like to use for mail merge into a single document. Thanks. |

No, Word can only use a single, flat-file as the datasource. If you can
export the data to Access, you can create a query to combine the information into a single datasource, provided there is a field that you can use the link the relevant records from each source. -- Hope this helps.
