I have a VFP 6.0 app that uses Word 2000 for automated mail merge to letter-size documents. Data source is a 1000-record VFP table with no indexes. My problem is that the best output rate I can get is 20 pages per minute. The problem seems to be at the point of merge. It also seems to be exponential in nature. For example, if I use 100 records instead of 1000, I get about 150 pages per minute.
F.Y.I. Word repagination is disabled

Any ideas?
