MM gives me a DDE link failed with my Excel doc over 3000 lines.
Mail Merge issue:
I am attempting to MM a word doc using an excel doc as my data source. I keep getting a message that the DDE link could not be established. My excel doc is over 3000 lines. Is there a limitation in MM that keeps giving me this answer. I have split the excel doc in two and it still gives me the same answer, but if I only use a 20 lines or so it works great. What am I doing wrong? |
