Ted,

Thinking outside the bun: Could you write a simple command line utility
to extract (via ODBC) the data you want to merge into a CSV, XLS, or
other local file format and have your WordPerfect mail merge routines
pull data from these local files? While this may add another level of
complexity to your solution, it may also make debugging your ODBC
connection problems a lot easier?

I have no recent experience with WordPerfect, but I've found that Word
handles mail merges *much* more reliably from simple, local text files
than it does via live connections to an external database.

Malcolm
