Can't use Merge feature

[JuliaW]

If I have a postcard file I've already made on the
screen, when I try to pull up the "Merge" feature under
Tools, it is shaded grey and I can't open it. It insists
that I either form a new database list of addresses or
edit the one that I want to merge. I don't want to edit
the one I want to merge. I just want to MERGE it.

If, however, I have just a postcard template on the
screen (without it having been made into anything), I CAN
pull up the "merge" feature under Tools. It is not
shaded out.

How do I un-shade the "merge" feature?

To merge, you must choose the postcard option in page setup. Only one card will be
visible on your screen but the merge ought to work then.

Julia what happened to your post of yesterday.

Did you reply to that, because it does not look like you did.

What is wrong with you?

Are you having a major malfunction of some sort or other.

Your issue is easily fixed if you answered the questions I posed to you on
your previous post.
