Lost bookmarks

[Bao Le]

I'm running a mail merge in word 97. My main document has
some bookmarks. I want to carry these bookmarks over to
the form letter after the mailmerge. How can I do this?

As each bookmark in a document must have a unique name, bookmarks will not
survive the execution of the mailmerge.

Tell us what you need the bookmarks for and we may be able to suggest
another way of doing it.

You can't. Bookmarks must be unique. They cannot possibly be after a
mailmerge so Word strips them.
