How can I switch records in an Access mdb to Mailmerge w/Word 2003

[Zillafan]

I'd like to be able to pull fields from a record in Access for exportation to
a Word Mailmerge document. When I am done, either Access of Word stops me
from going to the next record for the next Mailmerge document. What am I
doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

\I have a nice working sample that does a merge of the current record to
word.

The sample I have can be found here:
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/msaccess/msaccess.html

What is nice/interesting about my sample is that is specially designed to
enable ANY form with ONE LINE of code....

Thus, each time you build a new form, you can word merge enable it with
great ease.

Make sure you read the instructions from above, and you should eventually
get to the follwoing page

Note that the merge can also use a query, and thus you don't have to merge
just "one" record..

After the merge occurs, you get a plain document WITHOUT any merge fields,
and this allows the end user to save, edit, or even email the document
(since the merge fields are gone after the merge occurs).

Give the above a try.
