Hi
I'm running OOO 1.9.79.2 on Ubuntu
------------------------
I spent most today and yesterday setting up a rather complicated
registration form for the Dormitory where I work. It contains about 40
fields.
I set up a Calc- document with all the data (about 55 records) with
about 50 fields.
Now I am trying to merge the two together. When I tested it in the
beginning it worked quite well... now the programme is repeatedly doing
the following
It places the Surname of Record One in the document of Record Two.
The Surname of Record Two in the document of record Three.
So if the person in record one is Bongani Mbatha
and the person in record two is Khumo Lekau
It prints it as Khumo Mbatha
How do I fix this? I am under quite a bit of pressure to get these
registration documents done.
Thanks
As a suggestion to make life easier, you may want to switch down to
1.1.4 for now just to get the mailmerge done as 1.9.79 is a beta version
of 2.0.
If you don't want to switch to the stable version of OOo, you should
download the latest beta which I believe is 1.9.113. This may fix some
of your problems as you are using a version that is 3.5 months old.
HTH,
