keep a mail-merged document from asking to connect to a database Kristi 10/7/2008 8:30:04 PM I use a database to create individual letters for clients. When I send the letter to colleagues to review they are prompted to select from my database. How can I convert a merged document into a regular document (containing the data I merged in) so that they don't have to deal with this?
