Hi all,

Daily we merge hondreds of letters to our customers (a set of 30 Word2000
documemts). Every day we get (with random documents in the set) a message
window that has a caption: "Scheidingstekens voor veldnamenrecord". Word
does not recognizes the fileformat of the datafile. The datafile is being
generated by a database routeen.

Word proposes a file format (TAB separated) and this is "always" the correct
format and the operators hit the "enterkey" when that happens. This message
is getting on there nerves after doing this for quit some time now:-)

Does annyone knows how to suppress that message?

With regards,

Harry Broekhof

Hi Harry,

You may want to also post this in the Word Mailmerge discussion group from the link below and include there the Word build shown in
Help=>About, the Windows version and some information on the structure of the data file and how you're attaching it.
