I just tried one tonight--

I have a file on the AS/400.  I used MicroSoft Excell and downloaded
it to a spreadsheet (small file).  I then used Word's MailMerge
wizard, and told it to use the spreadsheet for mail merge.  I had it
put together to print in about 15 minutes.

Rob's reply mentioned using Word to talk directly to the AS/400.
I'll have to give that one a try!

I also used Word to mail merge the letter via email-- just have the
email addresses as a field in the file, and away it went.  No need to
create a 'resolved' version either!

Sad to say, I'm almost (but not quite) ready to migrate the file to
the PC as well.  *sigh*

 What are people using to replace the Mail Merge function in Office Vision
when upgrading their OS/400?
