Mail Merge Problem

[George Johnston]

I use MS Works V. 8 and I am trying to send a letter to multiple recipients
using mail merge. I have defined the fields, but when I try to print, I get an
error message that states: "Works cannot complete this mail merge action
because an error occurred." I press "Okay" in the error message box, but
nothing happens other than a "ding." I have to do an ctrl, alt, delete to exit
the word processer.

Can anyone help?

Hi George,

I've never seen this in the standard Word mail merge, so it may well be a
Works-specific problem. Works does use an Addin to mail merge with Word. Best
ask in a WORKS newsgroup.
