You can use DDE instead of ODBC to connect to the database, although it's somewhat flaky: In Word 2007, click the Office Button, and then click Word Options.On the Advanced tab, go to the General section.Click to select the Confirm file format conversion on open check box, and then click OK.When you select the Access database as data source for your mail merge, theConfirm Data Source dialog box will be displayed.Select MS Access Databases via DDE (*.mdb, *.mde), then click OK.Proceed as usual. Or find a way to do without the parameter.Regards, Hans Vogelaar Marked as answer by Synthologic Tuesday, June 05, 2012 6:00 AM Thursday, May 31, 2012 9:13 PM Reply | Quote All replies 0 Sign in to vote Is it a parameter query that displays a parameter prompt or refers to a control on a form in Access?Regards, Hans Vogelaar Thursday, May 31, 2012 8:25 PM Reply | Quote 0 Sign in to vote Is it a parameter query that displays a parameter prompt or refers to a control on a form in Access?

As an aside, I decided a good few years ago that life was a lot easier with a text file outout from MS Access for all interaction with Word Mailmerge. –Fionnuala May 31 '12 at 19:13 Yes I am using a MS 2007 Word Document. –Asynchronous May 31 '12 at 19:22 Perhaps: support.microsoft.com/kb/318532 I strongly suggest you use text output as your merge file. –Fionnuala May 31 '12 at 19:34 I am not understanding when you say use text output.
