Default Need help creating a list sorted by category in Word

This actually helped with a project I've spent days trying to complete.
ONE more thing though, I'd like to send the merged pages via email. When I
try I get an error stating "You cannot send a catalog created by merging
documents directly to mail, fax,, or a printer.

So what now? I want to send each Manager a list of employees associated. ???

Your Mailmerge main document needs to be set up as a "Directory"
("Catalog" in old versions of Word). If it is set up as "Letters" you
will get a section break after every record which will typically cause a
page break.

Thanks Peter....that was it. I was setting it up as a letter. I went
back to my original "problem" document and merged it as a directory
and then it was fine.

It's always the little things that get you!

Thanks again,

Mike
