Hi Tamar,

I'm using your great Automation book to help me out here.

Once I have my flat cursor built, how do i tell Word to start a new document, i.e., I have a header source something like:

Employer_name, Employer_address, detail

and data source:

Employer1Name, Employer1Address, detail1
Employer1Name, Employer1Address, detail2
Employer1Name, Employer1Address, detail3
etc.
Employer2Name, Employer12Address, detail1
Employer2Name, Employer12Address, detail2
Employer2Name, Employer12Address, detail3
etc.

Where all the details for employer1 should be in one document, all details for employer 2 in the second document, etc.

Thanks...J
