document merge

Post by waggers »

I am trying to do a mail merge but I don't want it in either letter or email format and have been trying for 2 days to a way whereby the various fields do not appear as an address block. Can someone save my sanity

Open a new Writer document, press F4, open database, open the Table item and click your table. You can drag and drop the field names wherever you need them.

For a single record merge select the record with the gray box to its left and click the Data to Fields icon found above the field names (View > Field Names should be off). For a single or multiple record merge click the Print icon and answer 'yes' to the 'form letter' query.
