GW 8/Word 2007 E-Mail Merge

Running Windows 7, GW 8.01 and Word 2007 SP1. Trying to run a mail merge that will send the merge via e-mail. GW is configured as the default MAPI application.
While it appears to process something, messages are never sent. Nothing in Sent Items, nothing delivered, NADA.
Has anyone been able to get this to work?

We are having the exact same issue now also. Were you able to figure this out?

How activate the Adobe pdf in MS Word to send Mail Merge attachment in Outlook

I'm doing a mail merge document in MC Word and want to pdf the individual letters separately then email the document as pdf in Outlook to each different recipient (which has a custom letter). How do I activate that feature in the MS Word program that typically shows under the Mailing Menu?
I sincerely appreciate a quick response. I am under a steep deadline.
Thanks!

Import data from SQL Server into MS Word document for Mail Merge purpose ?

Hi,
Is it possible to import contacts from SQL Server into MS Word for mail merge purpose or if retrieving data from MS Excel can we update the data in MS Excel sheet without opening it ?
Note: Remember when you open a word document already set up for mail merge, asks you to run the query to return all records from the excel sheet it is connected to.

Word and the current data source dialog do not really give you any help with that.
You either have to be able to create a View in SQL Server that performs the query you need, then connect to that, or you have to be able to create the correct query manually (or perhaps using some other query tool that can help you), then use VBA to connect
using that query.
For example, if you have been through the connection process once (connecting to a single table) then you will have a .odc (Office Data Connection file) which has the info. needed to connect to the correct server and database. It's a text file with some
HTML and XML inside. You can copy/rename it. Let's say it is called "c:\a\myodc.odc" Then in VBA you can use something like
ActiveDocument.OpenDataSource Name:="c:\a\myodc.odc, _
SQLStatement:="put your SQL statement in here, and if it is long,...", _
SQLStatement1:="put the second part in here"
You get a maximum of either 255 or around 511 characters in the SQL statement, and Word tends to impose some syntax requirements that Transact-SQL does not, so e.g. you may need to quote all your table names.
You can also se an empty .odc file and provide connection info. in the COnnection:= parameter in OpenDataSource.
As background, until Word 2000, by default you would use MS Query to create your SQL query, and MS Query does have facilities that can help you build your query (a bit like the ones in MS Access). That may still be possible (it is a bit harder to find the MS
Query option now, and I am not sure it works with the latest versions of Word). MS Query only works for ODBC queries, and they do not always work correctly when you actually issue the query using ODBC from Word, because of a Word problem to do with Unicode
fields in SQL Server. But you could probably still use MS Query to help you construct your SQL. (It's probably easier to do that in Excel, though).

Access 2013 crashes after mail merge in Word 2013

We have several Word templates that query an Access database to populate themselves. After the mail merge is complete, when we close Word then Access immediately crashes every time. This started after upgrading from Office 2003 to 2013. We tried updating
the Word Doc to 2013 but then it would not connect to the data source at all. Last, we also tried to Compact and Repair the database with no luck.
We searched for an Access Hot Fix but could not find anything that matches our issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Use a table or query as the data source
Open the source database, and in the Navigation Pane, select the table or query that you want use as the mail merge data source.
On the External Data tab, in the Export group, click
More , and then click Merge it with Microsoft Office Word .
The Microsoft Word Mail Merge Wizard starts.
Select whether you want to create the link in an existing document or in a new document, and then click
OK.
If you chose to link to an existing document, in the Select Microsoft Word Document dialog box, locate and select the file, and then click
Open.
Word starts. Depending on your choice, Word opens either the document you specified or a new document.
In the Mail Merge pane, under Select document type, click
Letters and then click Next: Starting document to continue to step 2.
In step 2, click Next: Select recipients.
In step 3, you create the link between the data source in Access and the Word document. Because you started the wizard from Access, this link is created automatically. Under
Select recipients, note that Use an existing list is selected, and the name of your data source is displayed under
Use an existing list.
Click Edit recipient list if you want to customize the contents of the table or query.
You can filter, sort, and validate the data. Click OK to continue.
Click Next: Write your letter to continue. Follow the remaining instructions in the
Mail Merge pane, and in step 5, click Next: Complete the merge.
Other ways to use a table or query as the data source
You can specify a table or query as a data source in additional ways. For example, you can export the table or query from Access to an ODBC database, a Microsoft Office Excel 2013 file, a text file, or any other file format that is compatible with Word,
and then link to the resulting file by using the Word Mail Merge Wizard.
If you have not already exported the table or query , do so. In Access, in the Navigation Pane, select the table or query that you want to use, and on the
External Data tab, in the Export group, click the format you want to export to, and then follow the instructions.
In Word, if the Mail Merge pane is not displayed, on the
Mailings tab, in the Start Mail Merge group, click the arrow under
Start Mail Merge, and then click Step by Step Mail Merge Wizard. The
Mail Merge pane appears.
In step 3 of the Mail Merge pane, under Use an existing list, click
Browse or Edit recipient list.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, specify the data file that you created in Access, and then click
Open.
Follow the instructions in any dialog boxes that follow. In the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box, review and customize the contents of the file. You can filter, sort, and validate the contents before you continue.
Click OK, and then click Next: Write your letter in the
Mail Merge pane. For more instructions on customizing your mail merge, see Word Help.

Word 2007 VBA vs Word 2010 VBA - Macro Failure

Hi,
I have a macro that when run in Word 2007 VBA works fine (Takes a Word Template, an Excel Spreadsheet and produces PDF output of merged documents).
Sub mergethem_be() '
' merge1record_at_a_time Macro
Dim fd As FileDialog
'Create a FileDialog object as a Folder Picker dialog box.
Set fd = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
With fd
'Use the Show method to display the Folder Picker dialog box and return the user's action.
'The user pressed the button.
If .Show = -1 Then
For Each vrtSelectedItem In .SelectedItems
'vrtSelectedItem is aString that contains the path of each selected item.
'You can use any file I/O functions that you want to work with this path.
'This example displays the path in a message box.
SelectedPath = vrtSelectedItem
Next vrtSelectedItem
Else
MsgBox ("No Directory Selected. Exiting")
Exit Sub
End If
End With
'Set the object variable to Nothing.
Set fd = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
MainDoc = ActiveDocument.Name
ChangeFileOpenDirectory SelectedPath
For i = 1 To ActiveDocument.MailMerge.DataSource.RecordCount
With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
.SuppressBlankLines = True
With .DataSource
.FirstRecord = i
.LastRecord = i
.ActiveRecord = i
docName = .DataFields("naam_mailing").Value & ".pdf"
End With

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
End With

End Sub
If there are 31 rows in the spreadsheet it produces 31 PDF documents named based on the Name field in the Mail Merge Template.
However when I use the same Macro code in Word 2010, same mail merge template and same source excel, it produces the first PDF and then generates an error on the bolded line as if there was no longer a document available.
Now I know I use ActiveDocument.Close before going through the loop again, but that seems fine for Word 2007.
Am I missing something really obvious here?

If Bernie's ideas don't work, single step thru the code. Does the first file get created properly?
What is the error? If the file isn't created, then the ActiveDocument refers to the template which isn't good to close!
I suspect there is a different behavior in how Word 2010 works and your VBA code probably needs to reflect that, though VBA is usually very good at providing backwards compatibility.

Mail Merge in Acrobat 8

Hi
I have MS Word 2000 and Acrobat Pro 8. I have created a merge document and have the data in an Excel 2000 worksheet. The merge has been tested in Word and is fine.
In the Acrobat help it says I can create a Word mail merge, automatically name and save PDFs and have them e-mailed. It says "Choose Adobe PDF > Mail Merge to Adobe PDF" but I can't find this anywhere.
I'm sorry if this is a newbie question but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

What I am trying to get at is that the merge button in the Adobe menu may only appear if the document has been setup for mail merge. This latter is the WORD setup for mail merge, not Acrobat. Once you set the document up for mail merge in WORD, then the menu item may appear. There is no reason to have the menu item if the document is not set for mail merge. I do not know if this is the case, but it may be the issue you are seeing.
It is worth a try with a simple setup of a few items. You don't have to do a fancy mail merge to check the concept. In the instructions it said to setup a mail merge document in WORD first and then it talked about the menu item. I suspect that is what is going on, but I can not test it at home.

Problems with saving Word 2007 table as PDF

I have a table in MS Word 2007 with some merged cells. If I use the Save as ... PDF or XPS option in Word 2007 to save this document as a PDF, the resulting PDF has a table with a discontinuous table grid. The table lines around the cells are broken.
Is this a problem with the Word table or does the Save as PDF command not work well with tables.
Thanks,
Karl Smith

What versions of both programs and how did you create the PDF? Can you post an example of the PDF?

Mail Merge Function in Adobe Professional 8?

Hello,
My company will soon be implementing an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS).
One of the major hurdles were facing is that the new system will not be able to generate copies of documents with controlled sequential numbers. Presently we use Mail Merge to implant the controlled copy numbers on our Word documents (using excel as the data source).
When we switch over to the new system (EDMS), we would need to do the same thing but only on a PDF version of the document. I've looked into the use of forms but don't think that's going to work as these are multiple page documents that need to have the same information on every page.
After reading about forms I get the impression that you would have to do every page separately (as opposed to having a data source like excel and fields in the PDF to accept the data from the excel file).
Is there any function in Professional 8 similar to Mail Merge in Word?
Thanks!!

Hi,
I was thinking of a Mail Merge function in Adobe Professional 8 itself, in
other words, performing a Mail Merge on a PDF document, as opposed to what I
think you're suggesting which is to create the Mail Merged document in Word
and then convert to PDF. That wouldn't be a solution because these
documents will be residing in an EDMS database (Electronic Document
Management System which will hold both the Word and PDF version of a given
document), which creates it's own headers and footers when printing from the
system. There's no way to place a stamp at this point in the process because
you're within the EDMS system, no way that is without an expensive plug-in
or work around to the system, and with the way that Word doesn't always
convert so neatly to PDF, and the need for this stamped document to be an
exact rendition of the EDMS (printed) version, I would need another
solution.
My original solution was to print the PDF version of a document from the
EDMS system, hence it will print with the appropriate EDMS Headers and
Footers (which only get added inside of the EDMS printing process), take
that print, scan it, and now with the scanned version (after setting up the
fields where the merged data will go), merge it with a data source (excel)
and print it out. We would then have a document with a controlled copy
number that has all the appropriate formatting of the EDMS version, plus of
course a unique copy number stamped where we choose.
Of course none of this will work unless Acrobat Professional 8 can do Mail
Merge from within itself. This is what I need to experiment with....any
ideas?
Thanks!

Word 2007 mail merge : problem with mixed portrait and landscape orientations

Hi there,
I have a 3 pages document Word 2007 file
This is a mail merge I want to export in PDF using Adobe Acrobat Printer,
then send "big" PDF to printing.
page 1 is PORTRAIT
page 2 is PORTRAIT
page 3 is LANDSCAPE
In PDF pages 1 and 2 are perfectly fine, inside an A4 format (width=210 height=297mm or something)
but for page 3, system changed to a "double" sized page (A3 width=297 height=420) and printed my stuff at the 1st top middle of big page.
So I have a big "double" sheet, oriented PORTRAIT, with my stuff in 1st half, and a blank in 2nd half.
It seems that system did not rotate the page... and just put the stuff into a bigger sheet to "solve" at best.
I would like the same size of paper (A4) but in landscape : width=297 height=210
I have already seen many PDF with mixed portrait and landscape orientations, so what's the thing ?
With my advanced thanks,
And greetings from Paris, France !

Some questions:
Which version of office were you using before? 2003?
Are the data files on a network, or on your local machine? If they are on a network, can you make a copy of one of them on your local machine and try again?
Can you open the files directly in Excel? What extension do they have (.xls, or something else?) I am wondering whether access to other file types has been left blocked on your machine but is allowed on your colleague's machine.
Are you just opening the mail merge main document and seeing this message? If so, do you see the same thing if you start with a new document and try to connect to one of these data sources?
Can you confirm that the message is about Access even though you are trying to connect to an Excel file?
(Also, office 2007 has some new stuff - that let's you specify that certain folders are "trusted" . I don't think that ever affected MailMerge but it may be as well to make sure that your documents and data sources are in trusted locations).
Also worth trying to start Word in "Safe mode" - see, e.g. http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/word-help/work-with-office-safe-modes-HP010140792.aspx

OLE2 from Forms 10g to Microsoft Word 2007 Mail Merge

We have an Oracle Form that allows the user to print off information on the Form to a Microsoft Word document via OLE2 and mail merging; Forms version is 10.1.2.0.2 as it the version of OAS (from Linux Redhat AS4). This currently works fine if the user has Microsoft Word 2000, but since a recent upgrade to Office 2003 and now in some cases 2007, this functionality doesn't work.

Some questions:
Which version of office were you using before? 2003?
Are the data files on a network, or on your local machine? If they are on a network, can you make a copy of one of them on your local machine and try again?
Can you open the files directly in Excel? What extension do they have (.xls, or something else?) I am wondering whether access to other file types has been left blocked on your machine but is allowed on your colleague's machine.
Are you just opening the mail merge main document and seeing this message? If so, do you see the same thing if you start with a new document and try to connect to one of these data sources?
Can you confirm that the message is about Access even though you are trying to connect to an Excel file?
(Also, office 2007 has some new stuff - that let's you specify that certain folders are "trusted" . I don't think that ever affected MailMerge but it may be as well to make sure that your documents and data sources are in trusted locations).
Also worth trying to start Word in "Safe mode" - see, e.g. http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/word-help/work-with-office-safe-modes-HP010140792.aspx

Problem with Mail Merge in Word 2007 and Outlook 2007

Hi,
I just found out about the function to generate mail merged PDFs and send them via email. I tried that using Outlook 2007 as the email client, but it seems to me that Acrobat generates RTF emails instead of plain text. That causes many email clients, except Outlook, just to display a file called winmail.dat instead of the actual PDF file.
I already checked the settings in Outlook and made sure that new mails are started in plain text mode. If I do this manually the email becomes plain test. But not automatically with Acrobat.
Does anybody have a solution on that? I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9.1.
Best regards,
Johannes

Hi andré, I guess the issue is coming from the fact that you selected "AllPartiesInvolved" and that may contain any numbers of entries. So when you test your webservice, you put a key and then get a result for that key, and in that case you might get "element1" until "element3" for example if there was 3 partners involved in you activity.
But, when you design your template, you don't have a key at that moment, so in the Web Service structure, you have "items" which stands for all the possible entries you might retrieve at runtime. I guess you could use an index in your template to specify which item you need, but this is quite hasardeous, so i would be you, I would not design my web service to use "AllPartiesInvolved" but rather a specific Partner type like contact person for instance.
Regards,
Xavier

MS Word 2007 Mail Merge Doc save as changes content of other documents everytime I save as a new document

Have a mail merge initiated in Access that creates a Merge document. When I save the document as newXXX.doc..........., doc is saved but internal contents of oldXXX.doc are also changed to match last saved document. Help please.

That suggests you are saving a copy of the mailmerge main document instead of executing the merge to create an output document - which is the one you should be saving. Consequently, with your current process, the saved document remains linked to the data
source.

Why is my header/footer missing when I mail merge in Word 2013?

I have just converted from Word 2007 to 2013 and now I am having an issue with my mail merge document. My mail merge document has our company letterhead set up in the header/footer. When I finish the mail merge by selecting 'Edit Individual Documents' using
an Outlook contacts list - the first page is missing the header/footer but all the others are correct.
I use this document and mail merge every few days so this is going to cause me much grief if it can not be resolved.
I have never experienced this issue before and I consider myself an advanced Word user.
Has anyone else had this issue and knows how to fix it?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the first page of the Word document lost
the header/footer, but the other page display well.
If it is, please try the methods and check if it is helpful:
Click on File>Options>Display and make sure that there is a tick mark in the box for "Show white space between pages in Print Layout view."
Then, do you use DOC file (Create in Word 2007) or DOCX file?If
you use Doc file, I recommend you convert it to DOCX file to test.
If I misunderstand something, please let me know.

George Zhao
