Default Table in Mailmerge from selected items in access


We are using mailmerge to pull from an access database and create driver delivery instructions per account. At the bottom I would like a list of the items that each account receives. Is there a way to generate a list based on checked items in an access table for that account? Below is a sample of what our delivery forms look like and at the bottom you can see the table I'm attempting to create but have not been able to figure out thus far. It should list each item the account gets in the first column and to the right of it the driver is to fill out any changes to that items standard on hand quantity.

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:

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 http://bit.ly/1hduSCB

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
