Mail Merge with Word using Access 2000

[Guest]

I have run into a problem where I cannot use Access to mail merge a letter in
Word using the database entries in the Access table. It just sits trying to
communicate with Word. I was able to use it and created several test
letters/e-mails but now it does not work.

It also hangs when I start Word and try to open the letter. It stalls when
it is trying to communicate with Access 2000.

Hum, there are "MANY" ways that a mail merge can occur.

I am going to suggest you try using my example here:
http://www.attcanada.net/~kallal.msn/msaccess/msaccess.html

Download, and try running the above example, and see if it works on YOUR
computer. If it works, then clearly mail merge is possible, and something is
a a-miss with your approach. Threre is also instructions on how to use my
example in YOUR ms-access appliaton. It just might be what you are looking
for...
