Word97 Mail Merge

Hi

I am using Word97 and creating a data source in a network
drive say \\network_drv1\ If I use the abosolute path the
mail merge works okay

But If I map the above drive to say I: and use mail
merge it merged document does not contain any data merged

Any help is much appreciated

Hi Balasamy,

Word's mail merge can only use and recognize an absolute
path to the data source.
