wizard window

[lynn atkinson]

I am setting up merge documents which take data from an
Access database. Is there a way I can specify that when
the document is opened, the mail merge wizard is
automatically opened too. At present, I open the word
document the have to maually go to Tools- Letters and
mailings and choose mail merge wizard. Even if I save the
document with the wizard open, it is closed when I next
open the doc.
I want this process to be as simple as possible for the
users.
Am I missing something?

Hi Lynn,

In the Word 2002 section of my website's mail merge FAQ
you'll find a short discussion, with a couple of sample
macros that address this issue.
