Hi Mischa,
I want to automatically merge a word doc and an excel doc
when I open the word doc. I know that this can be done,
but I don't know how to create this.
Unfortunately, you don't mention the version of Office
you're using, so it's difficult to give you an exact answer.
But, generally, if you set up a main merge document linked
to a data source (Excel) and save it, the link will still be
there the next time you open the document.
If you mean "execute the merge" when you open the document:
- record executing the merge in a macro, and be sure to name
the macro: AutoOpen
