Mail Merge with Word and Excel
Okay, I'm new to this whole mail merge thing, but none the less I get to
support it. User is using Word 2003, when she brings up a document it prompts her saying "Opening document will run the following SQL command" it is just a select statement ran on an excel spreadsheet. Once she clicks yes, the document opens up excel, then the word document opens up. She goes to the name field and does a search in field but after it searches all the records, nothing comes up. It keeps saying record not found. Now if you do the search from Word 2000, the name comes up just fine. Any ideas? |

Doug you are the man for the SQL error. But now for number two problem, She
goes to the name field and does a search in field but after it searches all the records, nothing comes up. It keeps saying record not found. Now if you do the search from Word 2000, the name comes up just fine "Doug Robbins" wrote: See the following Knowledge Base article: "Opening This Will Run the Following SQL Command" Message When You Open a Word Document - 825765 at: http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=825765 test -- Hope this helps.
