Default Word Merge for an invoice

And using the AddIn does the end user also must install the Add In? Or is
it just for the creater of the merge document?

Thank you

The add-in can handle as many fields on the one side as are necessary.
You just need to pick one of them that is unique.

It can certainly handle Account Number, Name and Address and in your case,
you would pick the Account Number as the Key Field as that is the one that
would be unique. (You could have the same name with different account
numbers)

The One is not a reference to a side in any event. It comes from the
merging of Many records into One document.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my

No I am sorry that will not work...I hve too many fields on the "One"
side to make it work th need it to...

I am really getting frustrated and beat up over getting this to work.

Is there a template or something that I can make this work with?
I am trying to do this in VFP. Maybe I can do it easier with Access?
