MailMerge to new document without saving custom properties

[Paul]

i am trying to merge a template to a new document,i am using Visual
Studio Tools for Office 2003 in C#, the template is already connected
to a data source,
i am not allowed to change the template but need to merge it to new
data in the data source.I have been successful in updating the data
source but when i merge the document and save it, it saves all
properties. ie. if i where to email this document, when the recipient
opened the document, it would try to connect to a datasource and try
to execute the assembly.

How can i overcome this in code ?

I hope this makes sence.

Regards
Paul

Does it make any difference if you
a. create a .doc based on the template
b. merge the.doc instead of the .dot?
