- Quite a while ago I asked a question about using Access and never received
- a response. I'm not sure that it got posted, so I'll try again. Here is
- the question I asked:
-
- In considering the value of Access as a database, one function which is very
- important to us is the ability to use data from an Access database in
- Word mail merge. In other words, we would like to be able to insert Access
- fields in a Word primary document, do a query in Access, and generate a
- document for each record selected in the query. Is this possible? If so,
- how difficult is it? Would FoxPro for Windows be better for this function?
- Does anyone know when FoxPro for Windows is coming out?
