Data source problems while mail merging

K

Kaboose

Hi, I'm trying despartely to get my Christmas envelopes printed. I have a
data source document created with 87 names and addys. Anyway, when I'm doing
my mail merge, (getting the data) I cannot open and merge my data source
document. The message window says "cannot open data source because it is
already a mail merge "main" document. How can I get around this? How do I
"un-main it?" I am in a crunch for time and I'm becoming frustrated. Please
help me anybody!!!

Open the data source, click on Main Document Setup, and choose "Normal Word
document."
