RE: Mail merge

Dear Dania

Thank you for attending Access Introduction course!! I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.

I am hoping that you are familiar with the steps that are involved with mail Merge in MS Word.

When you get to the step where you have to choose the data source document you simply choose browse to locate your database file.

In the select data source window you click on the drop down arrow for the file of type and choose All files. Choose the folder where the database file is situated.

Select the database. If you have more than one table then it should allow you to select the table of your own choice.

Once you have selected eth table or query as your data source you should be able to select the fields from the Insert Merge fields!!

I know that you are doing Access Intermediate course on 2 Jun 2009 with me. If you cannot get the mail merge to work then I should be able to explain this to you on that day!!

I hope this has answered your query.

If this has answered your query then I would request you to please mark the question as resolved!! If not and you have a specific question related to this then please post it as a new question and we should be able to provide you the solution for it!!

Kindest Regards

Access tip:

Hide Access Tables

One method of stopping your Access tables appearing in Database window, is to rename the table(s) with the prefix usys.

This converts the table into a system object, which cannot be viewed in the Database window.

You can show system objects in the Database window by the following:

Step 1: On the Tools menu, click Options.
Step 2: Click the View tab.
Under Show, select the System Objects check box.
Click OK.
