I work for one of the largest Public School Districts in the nation and in
our school system we have something like 14,000 employees total. Anyway, we
have various mailings that need to get sent out to all employees on an annual
basis. We used to use some old, complicated, antiquated method through
xerox, however now we are switching to Word's mail merge to make this process
more efficient and speedy. The only trouble is that Mail Merge crashes when
trying to import more than 10,001 records--which means the batches have to be
split up. Now I understand there is only so much memory to allocate and fit
the job into, however it would be nice to have this number doubled or even
tripled! as I can't imagine that I'm the only company with more than 10,000
employees that would benefit from this change.
