I have a problem. I have a document that is supposed to get data from a
database. It used to work fine. Every time I tried to print, it asked, "Do
you want to print a form letter?" And, of course, I said yes, and lo and
behold, my fields were filled with data from my database.
The problem is that there was a little checkbox that said something along
the lines of "Always ask this" or "never ask this." I can't remember which
it said, but I figured, hey, I'm going to want to print a form letter every
time, so why not expedite the process?
So now it doesn't ask me. It just prints whatever's on the page, and does
not fill it with the appropriate data. In the first case, it was whatever I
printed last time. I've tried the alleviate the problem by creating a new
labels document, and now it just prints the field NAME, rather than the
data.
How do I fix this?

This isn't particularly helpful, but as a warning to others, I had heard
that you should "never, ever" select the box that says "Don't ask me
this again" or words to that effect, because what Daryl describes is
exactly what happens. The box never appears again and there seems to be
no known way of getting it back. At least no commonly known way.
Why a checkbox exists that has this effect, I'm not sure. Either this is
a bug or a very odd feature.
