My problem is that our users are used to creating a MailMerge main document to create their output. That's fine in most circumstances but where you have a set of groups within groups it becomes more complicated and I want them to have a way of specifying their output that is similar to their existing method.
The result I'm trying to achieve is a user defined letter (to a number of people [ie standard mailmerge]) which also contains up to 10 separate lists of user defined information. The letter is easy as is the list within it but not multiple lists in any order with any data - unless you know otherwise :)
Any help would be appreciated.
