Directory in table

C

Craig

Hi,
I want to build a mail merge that creates a directory. The trick is, the
directory should be one word table. The table should grow, so that there are
as many rows in the table as there are rows of data in the data source.

I don't want the table to have more rows than there are rows of data in the
data source. The table should just grow to the size necessary with each merge
(the data source will have a different number of rows for each merge).

That's exactly what you will get if you use a catalog (or in Word XP and
later it is called directory) type mailmerge main document with a one row
table in the cells of which you insert the mergefields. When you execute
that merge to a new document, the new document will contain a table with a
row of data for each record in the datasource.

Hope this helps.
