RE: Access - Mail Merge
Dear Orla
Thank you for attending Access Introduction course. I hope you enjoyed the course and benefited from it.
It is quite straight forward to do mail merge from Access. I am hoping that you are familiar with mail merge in MS Word.
Please follow these steps:
Open the table that contains the data to be merged. (If the fields are coming from various tabels then best thing is to creae a query and then follow the below mentioned steps.)
Choose Tools > Office Links > Merge it with MS Word
Microsoft Mail Merge wizard will ask you if you already have a letter that you want to merge or do you want to create a new document.
Choose the relevant option and MS Word will open with the Mail merge activated.
It would have added the Access Table/Query as the data source for you.
Just place the fileds in their relevant places and compltee the mail merge as you normally would in MS Word.
I hope this helps. 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:Space marksIt is good practice not i to have space marks for field names as this can lead to problems when using queries or VBA code. It is much better to use an underscore charcter to represent spaces in field names |
