    Generating receipts/thank-yous in Word

    I'm ready when you are! Thanks! EDIT: before you begin to help me with my very rough-draft db, wondering if this same procedure could be used to modify the "Charitable Contributions web database" template.

    Generating receipts/thank-yous in Word

    New member greetings

    I'm from Chicago but now living in the southern U.S. Used to use Access 10-15 years ago, designing simple databases on a temp/contract basis. Not advanced by any means. Been using Access for personal use mostly to keep my knowledge up. I now have an opportunity to do some Access db design for a...
