Hi:



Our school needs to create the report cards using the attached format (ImageReport.jpg). We opted to create a mail merge since ms access would not created a report easily.The data is extracted from our Ms Access db. Attached is an image of the data (ImageDatabase.jpg).

The issue we are having is to filter the information: each student have several subjects, the grades and percentages should be listed per quarter (field named Col1_Grade_Period = 1,2,3,4), ie: all the information subjects (grade, percentage, conduct, effort) from the quarter 1 in the column Quarter 1, same for the rest of quarters.

Is that possible? and how?

Thanks in advance

Mary

You can use Word's Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge facility for this (the terminology depends on the Word version). To see how to do so with any mailmerge data source supported by Word, check out my Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial at:
http://windowssecrets.com/forums/sho...ngs-(2000-2010)
or
http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip

The tutorial covers everything from list creation to the insertion & calculation of values in multi-record tables in letters. Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.

For some worked examples, see the attachment to the posts at:

Alternatively, you may want to try one of the Many-to-One Mail Merge add-ins, from:
