Mail Merge to multiple docs to save as multiple files
It is the *content* of the zip file - in particular the version of the
template for your Word version - that needs to be extracted *from* the zip file. The zip file alone will not work. *Only install the version required for your version of Word*. If the template is correctly installed, when you start Word, you will get a custom toolbar in Word 2003 and extra commands added to the ribbon in Word 2007. If you don't have those it is not installed correctly and will not work. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Kris Beem wrote: 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 Startupfolder, Doug Robbins - Word MVP replied to jimbeem16 on Monday, November 30, 2009 6:40 PM 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 Doug Robbins - Word MVP wrote: The template that you downloaded needs to be saved in the Word Startupfolder, 30-Nov-09 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 |
