Inserting multiple rows of data from Access into Word
I need help with merge fields to add multiple rows of data into a word document. My data is in MS Access or can export to Excel.
For ex... John Smith has three purchases on different dates, different merchandise John Smith, 052214, shirt, $45.00 John Smith, 042214, pants, $30.00 John Smith, 032214, shoes, $50.00 I need for this data to merge into either a Word document or directly into mailmerge for email. I have seen code but cannot get it to work. |

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...merge-Tutorial 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 attachments to the posts at: https://www.msofficeforums.com/mail-...html#post23345 https://www.msofficeforums.com/mail-...html#post30327 http://windowssecrets.com/forums/sho...l=1#post928391 Alternatively, you may want to try one of the Many-to-One Mail Merge add-ins, from: Graham Mayor at http://www.gmayor.com/ManyToOne.htm; or Doug Robbins at https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=5aedc...615E886B%21566 In addition to a 'Many to One' merge, the latter handles: • Merge with Charts • Duplex Merge • Merge with FormFields • Merge with Attachments • Merge to Individual Documents • Merge, Print and Staple Note: I'm not sure whether either of those addins works with anything other than Excel data sources.
