hello,
Using word 2000 SP3, on XP SP2.
I have a mail merge from excel to word and cannot have a text field inserted automatically in the merged document.
I am able to do the mail marge no problem, but cannot have the text field inserted when I merge. Since I have a lot of data, I do not want to have to insert a text field in every page of the merged doc.
This is necessary since the final doc is for other users, and I want to prevent them from being able to modify certain parts of the doc (which will be produced from a doc and the data from the excel table)
Without having to insert text fields after the merge, how can I solve this?
thank you!!!
louis
ps. see attached pic. the red boxes are the fields from the excel table and the blue box is where i would like to have a text field inserted automatically.
