Mail merge and queries

[DennisJones]

I have a database with lots of names and addresses. For the first time I am trying to set up a mail merge to do a mail shot, my problem is that I can get the mail merge wizard to work fine with the underlying address table but if I create a query to do selective mailings then mail merge comes up with nothing. The query does work and produces the required list of addresses but when I run it through the wizard it doesn't seem to be able to see anything. Any suggestions? I assume that it should work with queries..

thanks

Dennis
