Word XP Mail Merge
Hi,
I have an VB5 App that uses mail merge. It makes a header and data text file, then converts these two to word docs, then merges them with a template Doco. The Text files and the resultant converted files are exactly the same regardless of what versions of office and windows i have (which is to be expected) but Word XP doesn't merge properly. 97, 2000 & 2003 all work OK but not XP. XP misses records and chops some strings off. I have looked on the net and found some code examples which are the same as the one in the app so they were no help. I have also found some hints about within word but these also don't work. Coincidently i tried to do the merge within word with so no luck it always misses the same records, although i had to attache the header file to the data one for it to do this. Does anyone have any ideas? |
