Hi. I just tried to find this newsgroup, but it is not listed in my

Hi, 

Excel '03 & Word '03

I am trying to not only do a mail merge from an Excel file but also pull 
data from and populate an Excel table embedded into the Word Doc.

I am creating a report that lists all the email addresses a certain office 
is using.  But I have over 300 offices to document.

For instance:

DBI Planning, Ft. Lauderdale, FL

E-mail Address_______________Category____________________Cost/No Cost
 XXXX@XXXXX.COM 	Licensed Representative	No cost
 XXXX@XXXXX.COM 	Licensed Assistant	                No cost
 XXXX@XXXXX.COM 	Unlicensed Assistant	                $15.00
 XXXX@XXXXX.COM 	Other	                $15.00
                    

But instead of a simple pull data I need to do basic calculations as well.  

Thanks in advance.
Rich

When I try to select recipients for a mail merge being the criteria I need 
for my letter in Word, I am pulling the info from an Excel spreadsheet, I am 
using the 'advanced' sort option of "if 'this' AND if 'this'", it is working 
and I am getting the list of recipients I want, however when I proceed to 
complete the merge it is merging the entire spreadsheet instead of the 
selected recipients.  Please help.  I have tried clearing out all info before 
selecting....

6. Mail merge recipients/Advanced filter is duplicating criteria

Every time I access the Mail Merge recipients/Advanced filter and Save the 
file, Word doubles the criteria. Starting with one criteria, I close and 
re-open the workbook and there are now two of the same criteria. Access 
Advanced filter and OK, close and save, re-open and there are now four 
critiera. Next time 8 etc.

I am using Word 2003, linking to a Excel 2003 list of names.

Office is up-to-date as far as MS is concerned.

8. Mail merging labels: labels not advancing per page

I used the Merge Wizard to get my labels set up. Each page has 12 labels 
which are showing up sequentially: Vendor A on the first label, Vendor B on 
the second and so forth. However, when I scroll to the second page of labels, 
it's starting the page with Vendor B from the merged spreadsheet instead of 
the Vendor M. Each sheet starts with the following vendor from the first 
label area on the sheet instead of the last. 

What am I doing wrong? 

Thanks!
