access to word mai merge with "like string"

[sharris]

Hi.

I'm trying to do a mail merge from an access query to word. When I have a like string in the criteria of the query i'm trying to merge from, the recipient list in word comes up blank. when i remove the like string all the recipients are there, likewise when I simply use a series of "or" in the criteria...

Has anyone encountered this problem before and/or do you know how to fix it?

Thanks.
