data souce

[Jeff]

I am attempting to complete a mail merge where I send one
letter to a manager that includes the names of all the
employees who are to receive a bonus. So in other words,
employee A has 5 people eligible and employee B has 3
people and so on. How do I go about setting up the data
souce for this?

Thank you in advance.

This method indeed works ... once! This is the how I
have done it; but upon saving, the "mergecode" that
specifies the path is converted to useless text and the
merge is now rendered inoperable.

Seems like a bug issue in Office xp. I had word 2000 and
it worked fine.

thanks
