If you're not doing a catalogue/directory merge - which seems to be the case - the procedures in my Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial are not applicable to what you're trying to achieve. And, as the macro in post #4 relates to that tutorial, neither is it applicable to what you're trying to achieve. Although the procedures in my Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial could be used for outputting single records and emailed periodically using the macro in post #4, it's complete overkill for that. As for the error message you're getting, that suggests you haven't done the setup for your mailmerge main document as described in the tutorial.
