Extracting Data from Mergefields with VBA

[lwillis1]

I need to automatically print specific pages of a 4 page mail merg
document based on the content of a couple of mergefields.

I have an autoopen macro that is performing the merge upon opening th
document, but I do not know how to determine the value of th
mergefields contained in the document. Thus, all four pages get merge
each time - which is not what I want to happen.

Can anyone help me with this

It would be the data source that you need to interrogate rather than the
merged document.
See the article "Access a database and insert into a Word document the data
that you find there" at:
