Aoohhh!! Ok , I see... my sole intention on having a Word document was to be use as kind of "STATIC" form, something than can be send to print (HP5si or XEROX pcl compatible) in "THE FLY". I choose the TEXTMERGE becouse of the speed on the merge and I tough I could use it along with a Linkable OLE Word document, in that way I do not have to worry about signatures or logos because Word will take care of them. At merge time the only thing I have to worry about is to provide the correct info to fill the Address block (name address, city stat zip) .
But I guess the process that I was going towards is taxing a lot the memory in my system

Perhaps is there another way of using a word document with out a huggggee impact on the memory??
