Is there a limit to the number of labels that can be merged inOffice 2010
I'm working with Office 2010 WORD to setup a mail merge that will create mailing labels, (using data coming from "A-File.txt" which has 2736 records)
When I try to complete the merge I get the following msg. "Word could not finish merging these documents or inserting into this database". If I delete @ 1/2 of the records in "A-file.txt" the merge completes as expected. Does anyone know if there a limit to the number of labels that can be merged in Office 2010. If so can you tell me that number? many thanks in advance....!! dj |

Hi dj,
AFAIK there is no such limit. The error message may result from some malformed data in your file (eg unmatched quote marks).

Macropod..... Thank you for your response... I did an auto check for errors prior to attempting the "Complete Merge" (and it returned as ok...) However it is possible that some malformed data in your file (eg unmatched quote marks) may have found its way into the data file... and I'm not sure if that would return an error or not, being it's not an official data error. I will look into that.
thanks much ps... thanks also for the cross posting info... I am very new to using the forums, and do apologise for the not understanding the protocol... again thank you.... dj |
