I apologize, I should have been more specific. I may have confused things,
however, when you were talking macro, were you talking macro from Word or
Access? I was giving Access macro directions, where you would create a new
macro, choose OutputTo or SendObject from the pull down box in the action
window, and fill in appropriate action arguments that appear below for each
command.
What exact processes/softwares are you using for the mail merge or getting
the email addresses? Thank you, and sorry for the confusion. Cathy
