--- Comment #15 from Nicolas R <[email protected]> --- I've joined two attachments ( mistake in attachment type for the fist one) to reproduce the bug. You have to register the database BaseNom.odb as 'BaseNom'. This database is very simple and contains : - one table 'Table1' with id, firstname and gender code. - one query with parameter : 'Query1' - one query without parameter : 'Query2'. Initially the FormLetter is linked to 'Table1'. You can change that with 'Edit -> Exchange Database' > The original report talks about "mailing window". How do I get to that > window? What should I do in this window? Open 'FormLetter' and then 'File -> Print'. As the letter contains address database fields a dialog suggests to print a form letter. Accept that then you have the "mailing window". When the formletter is linked to 'Table1', in this window the 'Table1 datasource' is selected. When the form letter is linked to 'Query1' or 'Query2' ( using 'Edit -> Exchange Database') , nothing is selected. > > The original report talks about "mailing button added in the standard > toolbar". Another way to have the same mailing window > > The original report talks about "Print > Print a form letter". In the File > menu, there is a "Print" entry that opens a dialog, but nothing in this > dialog says anything about a form letter. In fact, this is 'File -> Print', and you have a dialog only if the letter has database fields. Oh, a good thing. If you filter / sort your datasource from the 'Data Source' window ( View -> DataSource or F4 key), when you 'File -> Print', the filter / sort is preserved in the 'Mailing Window' ( and better, if the letter is linked to a query, after reselected the query , filter and sort are also preserved). So the real problem is : maintain link between letter and query in mailing window. But perhaps this bug is for Cedric Bosdonnat ? Many thanks to glance at this bug ! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
