This bug has since been resolved in the 4.x series, as you subsequently discovered (I haven't tested it though). > I had hoped that the behavior would be to disregard trying to fill the > table and allow me to continue printing. If you ignore the initial question (i.e. by responding "No"), you should just be able to print your letter, but of course, it will only contain the data actually in it at that time. I don't know for certain whether you can independently reference two datasources (queries, tables, etc) in a single Writer document. I have seen mention in the past of trying to use Sections to achieve this, but my initial (and perhaps very basic) attempts at doing so were not successful.
