>>This looks good, but I am trying to quickly piece out only the part I want. It looks like this creates the new doc, links the source, prints, etc. As stated before, the document (form) is already in a destination that VFP will know as predetermined, and the source is already linked to it, and I am using the run command to pull the document up with word and the link is automatic. I simply want to send the command to perform the merge (simulate the user pressing the merge button on the toolbar in word). I may be able to piece this step out of what you sent me, but if you could send me a limited version doing just what I want to in the meantime, that would be geat.

>What should I put in the part (wdSendToNewDocument) becasue if I put it as it is, I get an variable wdSendToNewDocument does not exist. If I comment the line, it works, but with errors and only sometimes. What I would like to do is actually not save the new merged document but pull it up long enough for them to print or save it if they want to, actually, once the merged document is created, I plan to close the original form leaving up only the merged document to print or save. Can you explain what the wdSendToNewDocument part is for and the syntax for it?

Kevin,
Do not just check how long a code is but read it. wdSendToDocument is a constant with a value of 0 (see first reply #define)
Hope someone else can help more. I thought first reply already had all the code you need.
