Hello all,

First time user of Mail Merge feature in MS Word 2000. I've created a word
document that I wish to insert/keep merge field data fields into. After
creating the little database etc. and doing the "Merge" function, I notice
the merge fileds disappear from where they were on the document. What am I
doing wrong that could be making this happen. Please someone help!....thanks!
 
Are you merging to a new document? If so, your data is replacing the merge
fields in that document. Your mail merge main document is unchanged. For
more on merges, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/CreateAMailMerge.htm
