Mail Merge

[Andyb7901]

I need to be able to run a mail merge from VB. My script at the moment reads from a database and then dispalys a record ofg my choice. I need to be able to press a button or something that will transfer all my data to a mail merge document. I have no idea how to do this?? Or if it can be done?? I either need to transfer it to say a word file or a PDF?? Has anyone ever done anything like this?

Thanks

Hi and welcome to Tek-Tips. Please read faq222-2244 carefully to get the best from these forums.

Can you clarify if this VB5/6 or VBScript (your reference to script has me worried). If this is indeed VB6 and you have access to Word on all your target machines then record a Word Macro and edit the code produced into your VB app. You will need to change references to ActiveDocument to your own reference of course.

If this is VBScript you will do better in the correct forum (forum329)

If you have difficulty with some specifics then post again, using the guidelines from the FAQ referred
