Mail Merge Problems Word 2003
Can someone help? Doug Robbins provided a url to a site, but the information
did not help... I have been to numerous sites trying to solve this problem. I am using 2 columns and 61 rows of a multi-column spreadsheet as my datasource in a mail merge to a Word document..... I don't want a one-of-many, I want all the records, regardless of whether they are replicated in the list or not. The word table has 2 columns and 15 rows. In the Wizard, I have selected ALL RECORDS for the merge. Is there another switch that I can use that will pull ALL of the records from the excel spreadsheet, regardless of whether they are duplicated within the list??? Assistance is greatly appreciated as always - Lenny (please see below) When I use only the 'mergefield' and 'column heading' in each of the word table cells and run the merge, it produces a 600+ record document while there are only 61 line items in the spreadsheet. Each line in the excel spreadsheet is duplicated many, many, many, times in the final word document. Example 1 __________________________________________________ ____________ Col 1 Col 2 mergefieldIC NO mergefield Name mergefieldIC NO mergefield Name mergefieldIC NO mergefield Name When I insert the merge field and column heading reference in the first row and then add a 'next' field : NEXTMergefieldIC NO and copy it to all following rows of the word table and run the mailmerge, it produces a 2 page document but only pulls in the first instance of any entry that is replicated in the excel spreadsheet. Example 2 __________________________________________________ ____________ Col 1 Col 2 mergefieldIC NO mergefield Name nextmergefieldIC NO nextmergefieldName nextmergefieldIC NO nextmergefieldName nextmergefieldIC NO nextmergefieldName nextmergefieldIC NO nextmergefieldName |
