Mail Merge Advise

[dan.cawthorne]

Merry Christmas Every One,

Just wondering if theres any decent information out there on creating
a procedure for my database users to create simple mail merges.

So I know How to create a mail merge, and use query's and then from
that i a look the data source then select the query and then select
the fields i want to appear on the word document.

My users are not really going to have an clue an how to do this,

one way i just thought about is having another field called MailMerge
in my required tables and having that a tick box, which then i could
create an Query "MailMerge" and then have this has my generic
Mailmerge Source Of cause i would also create and update query to
reset the ticks. and then show people how to input the mail merge into
there word documents.


Unless any one has any better solutions?

Regards

Dan
