>Re-reading the chapter in the book, the only reason "against" mergefields is the fact that you have to have ODBC set up on the client machine to attach to a data source - and the potential problems with that. They then recommend to instead create the datasource on the fly via setting up a table in a new document (if I follow them correctly) and then programatically attaching that data to the main document. Or at least it seems that way. The code in their book seems fairly straightforward.

We went back to the drawing board after the book came out and published an update on the HWP site:

Third question down.
