Thanks for replying Tamar, I have what you have just suggested,
I'm using a dbf as my data source, the first column in it stores the name of the template that should be merged with the data for that record, I just can't figure out how to instruct word to LOOP through all the records, open the template for that record and merge the data in that record
with the template, If you can guide me in the right direction I will apreciate it, right now I can only see a solucion with VB for applications or macro which i'm not familiar with.

Thank you very much for your help.



>>Hello Folks, I'm trying to figure out how to merge differents documents at the same time in word, I'm doing mail merges with word, but every record in my data source requires a different document, that is record 1 requieres doc1, record 2 requieres doc 2, etc... and doc1 is diferrent than doc2 and so on. how can I do that, so far I've seen only examples of the same document
