In that case, mailmerge is unlikely to have been the cause of your problem.

That said, mailmerge might not be the best tool for this situation - employing a userform that retrieves the data from the appropriate record, then either updates the document directly or updates a set of document properties that are linked to DOCPROPERTY fields in the document might be a better approach.
