Default Excel hyperlink to specific word mail merge record

Hi,

I'm not even sure that this is possible but....................


I have a Mail Merge document that is linked to a Excel sheet. I use
this to send emails. My question is whether it is possible to create a

hyperlink in an excel cell that opens the mail merge document for that
specific record? I then need to edit this document before i send it.


I'm using Word/Excel 2000.


Thanks for any help,


Jeegna

Default Excel hyperlink to specific word mail merge record

Hi Jeegna,

Unfortunately, hyperlinking to a specific record would necessitate bookmarking
that record, but the mailmerge process necessarily deletes any bookmarks in
the document.

If you know the exact details of the edit and the edit criteria, and the edit
criteria are reflected in your mailmerge data source, you could use field
codes in your main mailmerge document to incorporate the edit as part of the
merge.

Cheers
