I have an XP database that performs a Word mail merge using automation.
The merge uses a common text file (stored on the root C: drive) as the data source for the template.
This merge works perfectly on any box running anything other than Windows XP. When you try to execute the following line on an XP box...
DoCmd.TransferText acExportMerge, , "qryAddress", "c:\mergedata.txt", True
the text file is DELETED! This produces an error because the data source is then missing for my template.
First, has anyone ever experienced anything like this?
Second, does anyone have an explanation or a remedy?
Thanks!
