>I'm using WORD 2003 Automation. I'm doing mail merge with a DBF as the data source. When there is a merge field in the WORD doc that doesn't have a source field in the DBF, I get an "Invalid Merge Field" error. Is there a way to trap this error or any other errors generated by WORD?

I found this message Re: Detecting Word's Invalid Merge Field message from VFP Thread #1211485 Message #1212366 that seems to deal with the exact same problem.
