I have an Access 2007 Database, containing Dues records for a Membership type application. Each Month I produce a Newsletter vis Publisher 2007, which ends up in PDF format. e-mail Address information is in Outlook 2007, snail mail adress info is in Access.
I want to be able to send an e-mail (Merge ??) to all those who have e-mail, with the Newsletter as an attachment, and with the Dues data in the body of individual e-mails (Merge ??). As the data resides in a number of applications, can someone point me in the direction I should take to achieve this.
I want to use an Access Table for a mail merge but when i try to use the merge option I get a pop up asking for a password. I put in my administrator password for the database and it tells me I dont have acess to the database. It has something to do with the passwords i put on the database.
Anyone have any ideas to what I need to do to get this to work?
I am preparing a Word document for a mail shot, and need to import data from my access file. I am trying to build a formula that will take a field from the Access file and, if it is true, print some data.
So far, I have =IF(Schedule 2014=40,full page). Schedule 2014 is a column in the query I am using in this mail merge, 40 is an amount of money in that column and full page is the text that should appear in the Word document. The result I am getting is!Syntax Error, 2014 .
The remainder of the information I am merging is working well. I am asking for the 40 to appear in the relevant recipient's letter which is fine, but I want it to print full page before it (or half page for 30, or quarter page for 20)
I am wanting to do away with access 97 on a few computers here at work but we cant afford to buy everyone office 2003. Before I buy us access 2003 for a computer I need to know if word 97 will do a mail merge with access 2003. Or could I just buy Office 2003 package for the few computers and it will work that way for a bit more money. I think there would be a compatability issue...
I have done several mail merges where you open Microsoft Word, select your data (inthis case a query from access) and them use mail merge to create the documents.
However, i need to do it the other way. I have a project in access where the user will be in access and need to do a mail merge to word, so i want the data to be sent from access to word while they are still in access, if that makes sense.
If there are any good turorials that ppl know about or what i could be looking for in order to achieve this then i would be very grateful to all who reply!!
I often create contract using mail merge. I have an access file that I want to use as data source for word file. But it does not automatically.
Please see the attached file !
If there are 1 customer and 1 property, I do not need to do anything. Conversely, if there are many customers and many properties, I take time to manipulate.
Firstly, I open the word file. I have to copy and paste paragraphs that I want. Highlight of the original paragraphs is blue.
Secondly, I click 'Insert Word Field' -> select 'Next Record'.
In short, I want to use VBA in access file to automatically perform the steps that I have outlined.

I have a MS Access 2010 application when the User opens form CONTACTS Form
â—¦User finds single record to be used CONTACTID is identifier to be used for selection â—¦User clicks button to open form frm_MAIL_MERGE â—¦Frm_MAIL_MERGE has a drop down combo box that reads the folder location where the application resides and displays all .DOTM files (that is all template files) and one more combo box which contains the CONTACTID. â—¦User selects single .dotm file for merge â—¦Frm_MAIL_MERGE has either drop down to select CONTACTID or UNBOUND data field for user to type in CONTACTID number â—¦User enters CONTACTID to be used for the mail merge â—¦User selects SUBMIT â—¦Application merges selected .dotm file with the information in table CONTACTS for the selected CONTACTID â—¦Merged document is saved on the user Desktop as xxx.docx
I wonder if there is a way to link two tables or queries to a word doc for mail merge. I have an investigative memo and many findings associated with it. They all in Access for record keeping. Now I want to merge the main memo with all findings into a word document. The trick part is that the memo is also different so I cannot have a uniformed letter pre-defined in word. The content of memo is coming from Access too. I don't know if there is a way to do it or simply have two independent mail merges and combine two words doc in one (how?, hate to copy and paste).
I would like to be able to pull a list of e-mail addresses from a query and put them in one field separated by a semicolon and space so that it could be sent to word and easily cut and pasted into whatever e-mail program someone has. I know very little VBA--can someone help me?
I have produced a A2k db for distribution to others. Part of the db is a function that links to some word docs via hyperlinks. The word docs have been set up as mail merge docs to a table in the db.
When used in Office 2000 this function is faultless but when installed on a computer running Office 2003 they sometimes get a problem when they open the doc in that the mail merge toolbar is greyed out. It seems as if the doc can't find the db. Has anyone else experienced this problem and know of any fix that can be applied.
I have searched the MS Knowledge base and this forum to no avail, although the MS KB did have references to similar problems (not a direct comparison of the problem) that required a service pack download to fix.
Before I tell someone to download a service pack I need to eliminate any other problem that may be causing it.
I have created a database of information which contains fields with Yes/No tick boxes. No problems there. When mail merging into Word the ticks are not formatted correctly. All I get instead are random symbols. All the other data merges successfully.
Can anyone help as I need to see ticks in the merged document?
Hi I wonder if anyone can help? I have looked through prevous posts and cant find any answers that fit what I need to do. For reference I am using Access 97 and Word 97.
I want to be able to have a client record open in a form and click a button and for that particular record to merge with a preformatted word doc. I have created a query that gives me all the fields I need (as they are over multiple tables) and I can successfully combine this into a mail merge. But it currently takes *all* the records and I want it to only do the current one. I also want user to be able to click a button somewhere on the form that automates this process for him. Is this possible?
I have investigated transfertext and filled in what I think I should have but it seems to do nothing. It creates another (unopenable) file in the same folder as the word doc and does nothing else. But I am using the 'export word for windows merge' in the tranfertext action?
If I can only crack this I will be happy! Many thanks in advance for any help
I've got a mail merge letter in word using a booking system which I've built in Access, and I want to be able to access the mail merge letter (or the letter template) through that switchboard. Is this through running a certain macro, and if so, can anybody tell me what it is?
So I have the following query which works perfectly (and will be use to create a report) but when the query runs to create the report I also want it to mail merge some of the items into word to be used on address labels.
Code: SELECT Dunmow.Date, Dunmow.Undeliverable, Dunmow.Duplicate, Dunmow.[OTM with XXXXXX], Dunmow.[Landlords Salutation], Dunmow.[LL Address 1], Dunmow.[LL Address 2], Dunmow.[LL Address 3], Dunmow.[LL Address 4], Dunmow.[LL Address 5], Dunmow.[LL Postcode], Dunmow.[Letter 1], Dunmow.[Letter 2], Dunmow.[Letter 3], Dunmow.[Letter 4], Dunmow.[Letter 5], Dunmow.[Letter 6], Dunmow.[Letter 7], Dunmow.[Letter 8] FROM Dunmow WHERE (((Dunmow.Date)=DateAdd("d",-7,Date())) AND ((Dunmow.Undeliverable)=False) AND ((Dunmow.Duplicate)=False) AND ((Dunmow.[OTM with XXXXXX])=False) AND ((Dunmow.[Letter 1])=False));
So thats my query, What I want it to do is to take the following
Hi, this is probably a very easy question for you “Access-gods” out there.
I’ve made a database (MS Access 2000) with all my clients. I collect a lot of contact info, including e-mail.
I want to make a function which opens a new mail window (Outlook 2003) and automatically puts in the e-mail from my form (In the send-to field of outlook).
I have a ms access table with two fields...tablename is ..."Addresses"..
Field1:= Employee_mail_id Field2:= Leave_balance
What I need to do is that,I need to send individual mail (in Bulk) two each employee intimating their leave balances. Is it possible to do it in vb .I want it to assign the codes in a button.
Below iss the code.
Dim r As Recordset Dim email As String Set r = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("select * from Addresses") Do While Not r.EOF email = email & r(2) & ";" r.MoveNext Loop r.Close DoCmd.SendObject acSendNoObject, Null, Null, email, Null, Null, "Test subject", "Message body of the test letter", False, Null
Do this for A,B,and C and send the individual report in via email to them. To me it looks like a mail merge, but I don't know how to manipulate the data and put it into the layout. My real data has a lot of data, about 100 person, and about 60 product that falls into two categories. Is there anyway easy and fast way to do this? Please help! Thank you very much!
I am using a query for a word mail merge and would like to maintain the formating from Access into Word. Is this possible and if so how. If not, anyone have a clue how to do it in Word... I am importing the date and would like it to be long version (Friday, November 19, 2004) and it's giving me the short version (11/19/04),
I am wanting to create letters in word to go out to trainees which lists the courses they are booked on. I have successfully created a query which has a parameter under the 'Trainee ID' field, where I put in the trainee ID number and the query pulls out the courses that particular trainee is on. However, when I try to mail merge this into word, it works well BUT...insists on creating a new document/letter for each course the person is booked on.
What I wanted was for it to list the courses below the trainee name but can't for the life of me get it to do this
Anyone got any ideas ? I would appreciate any help with this
I am trying to merge data with MS Word, but am getting problems. I only seem to be able to merge a single record. Can anyone help pls as this is quite urgent
I’m running a small web-hosting service, and my password-database is in Access 2000. I have trouble making to functions, both e-mail functions:
1. Send e-mail with password A function that sends one mail to a single e-mail address containing a password. Based on a form or query.
2. Start outlook and export mail address Just like the HTML code MAILTO:adress. I can’t figure out how to get this to work. The address is a variable. Get the value from the form or a query.
First of all, which technique should I use? Macro or script? Second, how do I use it?
I've got information stored per row with the name of the person which data-entried the information. If a user wants feedback from that user on that specific row i would like to make it able to send a mail to the data-entrier. The data-entrier name should be clicked in the row and that specific row should be attached in the mail.
I can store e-mail addresses of my data-entriers in the database, how do i achieve to send the mail address and specific row to outlook when a user clicks it?
I have created a mail merge from a query in Access and it works fine if you run it from word but I would like to know how to automate the mail merge from Access using the Command button. Please can someone advise.
Currently there is a MS Word application that runs a MS Access query to generate data for the Mail Merge with a document.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how this process can be optimized? Specifically, looking to reduce the amount of time required to produce letters (best practices).
