Need help creating a list sorted by category in Word
Hi all....
I'm trying to create a list of children to be picked up by parents. A single parent may pick up one or more than one child. I tried following the mail merge instructions on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/294686/ And did this.... {IF{MERGESEQ} = "1" "" "{MERGEFIELD "PickUp_Person"} "} {SET Parent1 {MERGEFIELD "PickUp_Person"} } {IF {Parent2}{Parent1} "First Child to be picked up: {MERGEFIELD Name_First} {MERGEFIELD Name_Last}" "Second child {MERGEFIELD Name_First} {MERGEFIELD Name_Last}" } {SET Parent2 {MERGEFIELD "PickUp_Person"} } I always get condition two (Parent2 = Parent 1). So it shows the parent and "Second child xyz" Then the next record again shows the same second parent and a new "Second child abc" I'm missing something simple here but can't seem to find it... Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike |
