Hi all,
I'm having a bit of trouble with the mail merge function in MS Access 97.
I have a word document with merge fields inserted and ready to go.
Here is what I would like to have happen: When the user has searched the database and found the right records, they should be able to hit a button name "Mail Now" and have the MS Word document open so that they can type a message. Then, it should email that message to everyone.
My problem is: It appears that the mail merge function is only available with a table or query. Unfortunately, my search doesn't include a query. A very kind person from this forum linked up my search form for me but it seems to be all script and no query.
Can anyone help me set the mail merge function up?
Thank you.
