Cannot get field values
I have set up an Mail merge document. But, I have to manually click on
View Merge Data A Button to get values. I used the following macro code to get execute mailmerge. If ActiveDocument.MailMerge.State = wdMainAndDataSource Then ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Execute End If

Maybe you need:
If ActiveDocument.MailMerge.State = wdMainAndDataSource Then ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument ActiveDocument.MailMerge.Execute End If I am not sure where it goes if you don't specify a destination. -- Hope this helps.

It doesn't work. Is there a way to debug. I can't even display MsgBox.

I would suggest that you first get the merge working by executing it using
the user interface rather than jumping straight in with a macro. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Can you get the msgbox function to work?
For example, if you run a macro with the command msgbox "Hello World." you should see a message box with that message in it. You are going to have to sort that out before trying anything else. Why do you want to automate the mailmerge? Are you trying to do it from some other application? -- Hope this helps.
