I am new to the mail merge function and am having trouble figuring out how to
use the mail merge with a report letter. I am following the directions in
the 'Access Bible', but it doesn't really explain how to use the MM Wizard
with a report letter. Would someone mind helping me complete this task?

Thanks,

I have a nice working sample that does a merge of the current record to
word.

The sample I have can be found here:
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/msaccess/msaccess.html

What is nice/interesting about my sample is that is specially designed to
enable ANY form with ONE LINE of code....

Thus, each time you build a new form, you can word merge enable it with
great ease.

Make sure you read the instructions from above, and you should eventually
get to the following page
http://www.members.shaw.ca/AlbertKallal/wordmerge/page2.html


Note that the merge can also use a query, and thus you don't have to merge
just "one" record..

After the merge occurs, you get a plain document WITHOUT any merge fields,
and this allows the end user to save, edit, or even email the document
(since the merge fields are gone after the merge occurs).

Give the above a try....
