Paul,
You can download the MySQL ODBC driver from here
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/3.51.html

Install, configure an ODBC connection to your MySQL database and use
this as a basis for your mailmerge from word.

Subject: [AccessD] mail merge involving mysql


Good morning Gurus

Is is possible to do a mail merge with Word when a mysql database
contains the recipients please? I suppose I really mean, when you have a
mysql database with the addressees, is there a way to make the details
available to Word for a mail shot, please?

Cheers from a wintry England. paul
