Opening mail merge

[Dudley]

I would like to be able to create a record in an Access form, and then open a
mail merge document with the same record open. I can create a command button
with VBA to open the mail merge document, but can anyone tell me the code to
then select the same record as I have created in Access?

My database is Access XP and it is networked to another computer with Access
2000.

Thanks
Dudley

Thanks for the advice, but my level of skill is not high enough to follow
your instructions.

Did you take a look at the detailed step by step instructions here:

Even with zero knowledge of code, you should be able to get the above
working....
