Limited access to whole database using automergefield
PJ Smith 5/24/2007 4:34:01 PM
I have a large spreadsheet of reading score data for a school. I want to
merge scores to one document. I had to confirm conversion to get data to
merge correctly. I am now limited to only 77 columns of my data. Why won't it
allow me to use whole spreadsheet.

There is no limit at 77 columns. The limit is 255 columns.

You need to look at the spreadsheet and see if you can see some change after
the 77th column (some hidden columns perhaps?)
