Mail Merge with Word

Chris Christou
in Windows Automation

Featured Replies

We have a solution consisting of a FileMaker DB and a predefined Word template which has a mail merge data source pointing to a file called data.mer.

We have successfully create a automation script which exports a file to the users desktop (data.mer) and then using AppleScript launches the Word template and executes the merge to new document command.

Our solution is cross platform and we would like to do this with Windows. I presume that this would be best achieved using Visual Basic however I have no experience with VB.

Any help or examples on this matter would be most helpful.

You are doing exactly what I want to do. Can you please send me the Applescript which causes MS Word to do this. I know this is many years after you posted this but perhaps you are still around.
