Getting Read or Delivery Receipts When Merging from Word to Outloo
We are currently using a third-party mass e-mailing program to contact our
exhibitors to remind them of deadlines, etc. It does a good job of tracking,
but we have a problem with the mail program saying they are delivered, but
the exhibitors saying they never got them. I realize that there is a
difference between never got them and "never got them," but we were thinking
of using a Word...

Query a merge document
I am using Word 2003.

Mailmerge Toolbar Find Entry
Hello,
We merge Access data into Word 2003 documents a lot. The Find Entry box
used to "remember" the last field used in the "Look in: This Field:" box.
For some reason it now seems to show a random field. Since we most often
search for the correct record by using the same identifying field, we would
like to go back to having the Find Entry box remember the last field used.
Any su...

Text displays as ZERO
I am trying to insert a paragraph into a Word document through a merge. When
I insert the merge field into the document, the text I have entered displays
as a zero.
I should say that I did not create this merged document, I am simply trying
to add a field to it.
Thanks....
