 Posted: Sat Jul 28, 2007 7:11 pm Post subject: How to re-enable the mail merge functionality when printing? |
 |
|
| I've been crafting some database merge documents, and I was getting a little annoyed at the popup box that kept appearing when I click File|Print that asked if I wanted to perform a mail merge. As there was a checkbox on the popup that said "Do not show this warning again", I assumed that checking that box would lead OOo Writer to do a mail merge on all documents that contain database fields by default. Well, I was wrong, what this actually did is make it impossible to merge the documents. After spending some time in the internet, all I can find is pages saying "Never check that box!" Well, I did, and now I want to un-check it so I can do mail merges again! How do I clear that setting? I can't find any relevant options in the Options menus, and I don't know where else to look. |

Aha! Editing the reg file referenced in that thread fixed my problem. Thanks much!
I have to say, that is a terrible, terrible design  Hopefully someone's opened a bug on this... |
