Word 2007 and Outlook 2007 e-mail MailMerge does not complete
I have been using Word and Outlook for years to do a mail merge to my customers. With Vista Ultimate and Office Professional when I do the mail merge everything goes fine until the final step "Finish and Merge" It looks like everything gets generated as I see each e-mail gets generated but does not get to the Outlook Outbox. This happens with both my address book and an excel sheet (o...

After mail merge, "File format is not valid" error when opening XLS file
While completing a mail merge in Word, I edited a few fields in the data base (an XLS file). Upon closing Word, I was asked if I wanted to save the changes to the data base. Of course I said yes. All subsequent attempts to open that XLS file have been blocked with the error message in Excel: "File format is not valid". I am using Office 2003. It seems like Word has created a different ver...

tricky IF merge criteria
Is it possible to use the last character of the value in one field as the criteria in an IF merge statement? To clarify, it would be something like this: IF <last character in "FieldX" is "1", Then "A", Else "B">. If this is possible, I can think of several uses I could put it to in current and future projects, and I'd love to see what the experts here have to say. Thanks! ...

Excel and 15+ digit numbers
Using Excel and Word 2003. Our Word document populates with data entered into an Excel spreadsheet. Part of the data includes account numbers, often longer than 15 digits. We're aware that Excel changes every digit after the 15th to a zero if the cell is formatted as a number. We can actually live with that for our purposes. The problem is that the Word document wants to convert these ...

"mail merge" disappeared from "tools" menu
Hey all. I use ms word 2000's mail merge to print address labels for a newsletter. But for the past couple of months the "mail merge" option has disappeared from the "tools" menu.

When I do a "customize" un...
