Hi

I've done a quick search for this and found nothing on the forum so I'm gussing I'm just being silly, but.....

According to documentation I've downloaded, in order to do a mail merge I need to click on Data Sources under the Tools menu, but I don't see that option. I have Macro, Package Manager, Customize and Options, but not Data Sources.

I'm using version 2.0. I'm also probably just being silly but I'd appreciate some help.

Thanks!

demonboy:

From your question . . . I will assume you want to be able to get to your 'databases' . . . if that is true . . . use either of the two methods.

Method 1: Press F4

Method 2: From the menu: View -> Data Sources

I hope this helps, please be sure to let me / us know.

The data sources mentioned by SlideRule show sources that have been registered at Menu:Tools>Options>OOoBase>Databases.

Between the two of you I have successfully managed to complete my first mail merge.

Thanks to you both.
