>> That won't be easy as long as only one databse can be defined to a document.
Set to Enhancement.

My Answer:
The Mail Merge wizard work in a other way as the serial print wizard, thats the
one with the litte small window, and the one which print files with a filename
taking from database. Open a Merge document and press cntrl+P to and say yes to
get the primary mail merge wizard.

The New mail marge wizard do it wrong and use more than one database.

With the old one u can have many databases in one document and only one is
active, thats the right way, for mail merge everybody need only one active 
database.

But for the document usability u need 2 databases, one for the sender and one
for the receiver. The Database of the sender is only active when u change the
sender. If u have changed the sender, u must change the receiver database, to
set the receiver database as active database for the document. To change the
database, go to Edit>> Exchange Database, close there the user database and
select the receiver database and select on the right side also the receiver
database, and click at "Define". The active database is now the receiver
database and the values in the fields of the sender database should be ignored
by the mail merge wizard. But the new creation of mail merge wizard empty the
fields of my sender database. I hope u can understand me now better, because u
have me misunderstood before.

The primary merge wizard in 2.0.4 can this what i want, and the new one isn´t
able, thats the problem. Therefore i say it isn´t difficult to kill this error
of the new buildet mail merge wizard. (The all wizard, creation and using).

Ill tell u this because i want not that u go in a wrong way in future.

Furthermore i need a personalized Subject from database (like the email address
is taking from database), for "send merged document as email".

Thank you for creation a Free Office application. I want help you to make a
better one.
Regards
Matthias Pester
