multi-column folded Booklet printing using mailmerge
Hi,
I'd like to print a folded A4 landscape two-column booklet using Word XP. I'm able to get my merge fields from an Access XP mdb. I have simulated multiple columns by linking two textboxes on the word merge template so that the merged data spills over to the next column on the same page. My problem is that each record prints on a different page. I want my merged date to fill column 1, then column 2, then next page column 1, 2, etc, not on separate pages How can I get all the records to merge in booklet format as paragraphs. Also, if there is a site that details word 2002 mail merge automation from vba, please let me know the link. |

multi-column folded Booklet printing using mailmerge
A directory/catalog mail merge puts the records one after the other as space
will allow on the same page, as opposed to a form letter which puts each record on its own page. The third option is mailing labels, which puts each record in a table cell. Change the document type. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP Web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site www.mvps.org/word Silvester wrote: Could you pls give me some more details ?
