KB Article 105888 only for Word97?

[Brian Collie]

In Word 2002, I need to do a merge as described in KB Article 105888 (How to
Merge Conditional Number of Records to the Same Page). This article says
that it is for Word 97 only. I searched and can't find a similar help for
Word 2002. Will this procedure work in 2002? If not, how can I accomplish
the same thing in 2002? TIA

Yes, it will actually work in ALL versions of Word

For a couple of other approaches, you may want to read the short discussion on
my website. Leigh Webber's DATABASE field approach is especially appropriate
if the "many items" data can be displayed in table format.

Mail merge FAQ, under Special merges. It's the topic about
complex merges (one-to-many). There's a link to the sample
file on Leigh's website.
