When a Mail Merge is performed using Word 6 the merge fields are changed to simple text.
However, when the same mail merge is done in Word 97 the merged fields remain as merged fields not text in the new document.

Is there any way using VB that the value of a merge field can be "extracted" and displayed as a normal text elsewhere? [sig][/sig]
