If what you're after is selecting paragraphs from a superset of paragraphs, you might just be looking at a master document. In that case you create the master document then link to the paragraphs you want in any particular case. You would need a separate MD for each collection of paragraphs, but then, you'd need a separate document for each mailmerge anyway. Since you're using mailmerge, I assume each paragraph is a separate document. They would have to be for this to work with a MD, I think, since one links to subdocuments, not paragraphs in another document. //James --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
