[AccessD] Access to Word Merge

Virginia
I suggest you set the merge data of your doc to a temp table or a query
rather than direct to a main table. If a temp table you write the required
record to the tabel before opening the doc, then do the mailmerge. If you
base the doc on a query you ensure with the query's criteria that it uses
the right record. Either way the doc will then just open to the right
record.
