[mso] Re: Making the computer think before a Word Mail merge

Ray,

Thanks for your help.  I'm building the query (uugggh).  It is a make  
table query as you suggested.  I use the donors table (for information so  
I can send it through the mail) and the donations table.  Turns out that I  
dont' have a "last donation" field, but I do have a donations table with  
every donation that is related to the donor table through the donor ID  
number.  is there a way to get this so I do only ONE selection per donor,  
not one for each time they gave?

I'm thinking it will be in criteria under the Amount field.  I'm staring  
at the expression builder without the foggiest idea how to say in computer  
"just the most recent, please"

It may be easier just to export to excel, and manually put in the most  
recent donations and then get it to multiply for me.

Access is tough on my self-esteem.
