With Microsoft Word 2003 and Access 2003, when mailmerging a Word document
that contains simple data fields and some query criteria selected, if there are for example 3 Access records meet the criteria, then the resulting merged Word document includes the first record in the Access database (instead of the first record that meets the query criteria) and the second and third records in the Access database that do meet the query criteria. This seems to be a bug in Word's mailmerge process not mentioned in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. |

Use an Access Query to select the records that you want to merge and as the
datasource for the mailmerge. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
