[mso] Invoicing Mailmerge
- From: "Pete Home" <peterl.harrison@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

- Date: Tue, 15 Apr 2003 17:54:03 +0100
I have a query on an access 2002 database that I want to use as a =
mailmerge.
The query is for invoicing purposes, so it shows customer details and
purchase details. OK, it's pretty easy to generate a invoice in Word, =
but
where a customer has several purchases, I end up with several invoices
rather than one invoice with all purchases on it.
Is this possible to do?
Regards
Pete

Hi everyone,
It's hair pulling out time for me (again!!).
This seems real simple to do but I'm just really stuck and if anyone can
help it would be great!!
I've inserted a footer for a document with VBA. The footer has Date Time =
Pag
of Num Pages.
If i look at the document with the Preview, the page numbers come out
fine.... 1 / 3, 2 / 3, 3 / 3.
When I print the document I get... 1 / 1, 2 / 2, 3 / 3.
Does anyone know what's happening at all please?

Hi Lisa
We had a problem with this a while ago. Ours appeared to be caused by
having sections (and therefore section breaks) throughout the document.
Although it's only a partial solution we found we got round it by =
changing
the section breaks into ordinary page breaks.
Might be worth a try if this could explain your situation.

Hi Folks,
I have a need to have two copies of Outlook on the same computer. The
installation disks do not allow it. Copying the program to another drive
leaves them linked, and changes in one are seen in the other - they =
share
the .pst file. Changing the .pst file in one changes it in the other.
I already use multiple profiles. Here's my problem. With each profile I =
get
a new everything, and each profile has its own .pst file. Great. But =
they
all share the same categories list. This is a real bummer. One profile =
uses
a set of 20 or so of the default categories. Another profile uses a set =
of
over 30 custom categories. I hate having them all appear in each =
profile.
Any ideas?

Humm... well, hopefully all individuals are in categories. Meaning:
Jones|Physics|Address|etc. Then you can sort everything by category.
Unfortunately, you will have to create a separate list per request. But =
it
won't take long at all.
Save your Excel as a separate file (I always call it TEST). Sort by
Division/Dept. for the first request - quickly delete name & info. not
needed (highlight all rows not needed & delete). Save that Spread sheet =
as a
separate .xls. Go back back to your TEST .xls and work on your second
request. And so on, this will go faster then you realize.
The great thing about Excel is that after you create your fields in your
Merg Letter in Word you can (following closely the labels in your .xls
sheet) you choose .xls as your data to merg with. Ta-da, DONE.
Unless someone has any other ideas, you will need to create separate =
lists,
but it will go quickly because of the wonderful sort feature in Excel.

Your best bet will probably end up utilizing an Access database. I =

I'm just now trying to think this through and need some advice.
=20
I have a spreadsheet containing person information needed by 3 =
departments.
=20
The three departments each want a list of the information pertaining to
themselves only and they want to send letters and literature to the =
persons
on their list.

What's the best way to meet this need without creating three separate =
excel
spreadsheets or three separate mail merge catalogs and three separate =

documents for the merge letters and envelopes?

To the best of my knowledge Tom, it is simply not possible to have two
copies of Outlook on one computer (other than dual boot). This is even =
=3D
true of having different versions. Every other Office app can co-exist =
with
earlier or later versions - except Outlook. I gather there are technical
reasons (to do with the MAPI functions?) why this is so.
Sorry I can't help further.
