Mail Merge on Networked drive using Word 2007
If I use Mail Merge wizard in Word 07, edit my source document (.DOC
format), which is on a network drive and then close out I get the following message "5FAF7666.doc is a maiin document that is attached to a data source FTG data.dco that has not been saved. Do you want to save FTG data.doc." I choose Yes, and then get a message that I cannot because FTG data.doc is read -only. I can edit the same document directly on the network drive, and I have verified that it is neither protected or read-only. If I follow same process the same files on my C drive, I have no problems. I have no problems when doing the same process using Word 2003. Furthermore, I can edit & save an XLS source document on a networked drive using Word 2007. What gives?? 3 questions: 1. Why is the main document showing up as "5faf7666.doc" instead of "FTG Receipt ltr.doc" in the message? 2. Why do I not have the same issues on my C drive? 3. Someone said this is a security issue and that you now need to edit documents directly, which are on networked drives. |
