Default Mail Merge to multiple docs to save as multiple files

Okay, I deleted everything I did previously and reread the instructions and started over. I apologize but the majority of this is over my head so I thank you for your patience ahead of time. I extracted the zip file to the STARTUP folder just as you stated before.

Just to be clear, by doing this does this mean that now the macro should start everytime Word starts? Because I opened it from the start menu and the toolbar is not there.

So I opened the template from the STARTUP folder AFTER opening Word from the start menu and proceeded. Same problem. I add the recipients to my document, hit "split the Merge" and get the 'All, current, selected' box. Selected All...and another window opens with the new document but I still don't get the box asking about separating to different files. What am I doing wrong?


Also, I couldn't find this convo on the Microsoft discussion group. Not sure why but I found it on Egghead Cafe. I hope this still counts as part of your help newsgroups

The template that you downloaded needs to be saved in the Word Startup
folder, which for your system will be located at:

C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application
Data\Microsoft\Word\Startup
