I have a word document that i am running a mail merge from an excel file.
When i open the word document it tells me "Test.doc is a mail mege main document. Word cannot find its data souce c:\test2.xls".
I click on Find Data Source, and point it to the right file.
Go back into the mail merge options and apply a fliter to the Excel file. i save the word document, close it.
When i open it i have the exact same problem."Test.doc is a mail mege main document. Word cannot find its data souce c:\test2.xls".
If i save the word document without applying the filter in Excel it will work fine, but other wise it loses the data source link, any ideas ?
