    Word Merge Filtered Query Report?

    Hi,



    Still learning!. I have created a database together with query reports which provide multiple returns. I can create a while query word merge through outlook however if I then filter the query prior to word merge the filters are not applied. without generating new specific queries for a word merge is there a work around which I would understand????

    Cheers

    Can you make a param query,so the query asks the user what to filter?
    like: [Enter Department to filter]

    I recommend what ranman256 suggests.

    The other option is to write data from MS Access to Word formfields. You can find information here:

    Ok that helps but I need to be able to add a drop down box within that query containing multiple entries, some of which are quite long? Can I do this?

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
