It may be an issue with the way that the connection is being made to the
data source. From the Tools menu in Word, select Options and then go to the
General tab and check the box against the item "Confirm conversions at
open." Then when you attach the data source to the mailmerge main document,
you will be presented with a dialog in which you can select the method by
which the attachment should be made. Try the DDE option.

Hello!

I'm trying to view the data in Word with a recordset that comes form an
mdb Access query...
when I update the database field in Word, I simply get nothing and whereas
the query displays many rows in Access?!?

When I try to connect the Word document to an mdb Access table, it works
fine.
So why doesn't work with a query?

Thanks for any suggestion
