Mac Forum / Applications / Word / May 2006How do I select Recipient of Email Merge
I have created a document and a list in Word. I have done Tools/Lettrs & Mail/Email/Use current/browse and selected the correct document. I have then selected list ok and have the <first Name> in the email. I then get it to generate the document ok and have my 20 or so letters made. What I am not sure about is: 1. The email seems to have no page breaks - will it separate them when sending. 2. When I click on Email icon how do I get the <Email Address> into the TO section of the email? 3. Is there anything else I need to do. thanks Rhonda > 1. The email seems to have no page breaks - will it separate them when > sending. If you send as HTML or plain text, there are no page breaks. If you send as an attachment, the attachment contains a complete Word document complete with the pagination you see before you merge (roughly speaking). > 2. When I click on Email icon how do I get the <Email Address> into the TO > section of the email? You should see a dialog box that prompts for "To," "Subject Line," and "Mail format" (actually, it may be slightly different on Mac and I'm not in a position to check right now). In the "To" box, you can only select one of the fields in your data source - you can't type a field name in. In other words, the email address must be one of the fields in your data source.

I don't know why I had so much trouble.... 1. I was putting a photo in the middle of my email (instead of as an attachment), this lead to no page breaks. 2. When it merged, I wasn't going far enough to get to the prompter for the (insert Email Address) and (attachment) which was my whole problem. Thanks for your help Rhonda. OK, thanks for the feedback.
