FM7 won't merge with Word X for Mac

[dkechnie]

I have tried using the Data Merge Manager in Word X for Mac to merge fields from FM7. In the Choose a File window the FM7 files remained dim. The same procedure worked if I used an old FM3 file. Is this a FM7 problem or a Word version not updated for FM7? I am using Word 10.0.0 Any help is appreciated.

Since the file format has changed in FM7, word probably needs to be updated to make this work. I doubt that Microsoft will update Word X at all. They may eventually incorporate support into Word 2004. (Maybe it's already there, but I don't have a copy to try....anyone....Bueller?)

I believe someone previously tried with word 2004 and it didn't work.
