Hi
Background:
I took over an Access Database from a person that left
the company that produces mail merge letters. The
letters are stored on the co. shared drive.
I made a changes
a) To the mail merge letter while in the Access Database
which is fine.
b) Also, a data source was missing – such I updated the
datasource so the mail merge was able to work.
Problem:
This database is located on my “h” drive at work. My own
personal stuff. I moved the exact same version to the G:
Drive – The Shared Drive. So, the users could access the
database I made a update to .
However, once the database is moved to the shared drive I
can’t get the letters to work properly.
I get this error message :
ACKFORMS.DOC is a mail merge main document. Word cannot
find it’s data source. USRLOG-H.mdb. (This is the name of
the database).
This option works fine on my hard drive but once I move
to the shared drive it no longer execute properly!
Several other letters have the same problem ?
Menu Options that worked correctly ( I didn’t make any
changes ) on my hard drive do not work correctly on the
shared drive. This is the exact same database, I don’t
understand what’s going on and would hope somebody could
point me in the right direction..
Thanks for any information.
