Access mail merge question

15
Hi,

After searching through this forum I came across a link to the excellent Albert Kallal's super easy mail merge.

It is really good though it seems that the only bound columns from a table can be merged, does anyone know of a way to merge information from unbound columns from linked tables into a word document?

Did you try to create a query and use that instead of a table ?
MS Word's mailmerge will offer the possibility to use either a table or a query.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I just realised as you mentioned the merge all function instead of the merge single doh!

Was able to run a query then merged from there.

Thanks!
