Mailmerge, ODBC and Variables

[Mark Stephenson]

Hi,

Im not sure if the following is possible (im sure it must be)....

I have a mailmerge file which pulls client information back over odbc via
MSQuery.

We have 100k+ records, what I am wanting to do is pass a variable to MSQuery
from the word file.

Is this posisble?

Thanks,


Mark.

What kind of variable? Do you mean an addition to the query (to narrow down the
result)? Which version of Word are you using?
