"Header Record Delimiters" dialog box

V

Vic N.

Hello,
I have a window app written in C# doing word merge using Word 2002 SP3 (we
are still at turtle pace in catching up with the new technology here). A
little background of the app: the users select the recipients from the list,
the app generates datafile (tab delimiter) and then performs word merge base
on the list of the recipients that the users selected.

The problem is: when I pass in the IDs (selected from the list), I always
get the "Header Record Delimiters" dialog box prompting me to select the
delimiter. But when I pass the Name (of the recipients selected from the
list), I do not have the dialog box displayed. The thing is I cannot pass the
Name because it's not unique, and sometimes it has comma in it - like "Jane
Doe, MD" or "Joe Mack, Jr" - then it will mess up something else in my app...

Does anyone have idea why the dialog appears when I pass in the ID, and does
not happen when I pass in the name?
