Default Mail Merge Printing Problem

You are not actually executing the merge, but are printing a preview of the
results. If you execute the merge, there will be no mergefields in the
output.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
services on a paid consulting basis.
