Access and Word Merge in Office 2003

M

MAC

I'm experiencing problems with automation from Access to Word. It always
worked well, but since I installed Office 2003, I get the message that my
Word merge file (with predefined merge fields) is NOT a merge file.

Would anyone know what's going on?

Thanks for your help!

What is probably happening is that Word 2003 includes a new security check
that means that when your Word document tries to open its data source, it
fails. If this happens during automation, you may or may not see an error
message depending on your code.

You will probably have to modify the WIdows registry to fix this - see
