I'm trying to sort a mail merge but the sort tab in Query
Options is grayed out.
The source file is an access table.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.
 
Simply create a query of the data in the ms-access side. You then set the
sort of that query also.

Then, when you do the mail merge..use that query and NOT the table.

In fact, for your forms, listboxes, combo boxes you should use a query if
you need to set a sort order. The only exception to this is when you make a
report...as it has its own settings for the sort order..and the table, or
query order is ignored.

Also, if you want a nice example of a ms-access to word merge...check out my
sample at:
