I have a Word document that is supposed to be tied to a query in my database for a mail merge. For some reason it doesn't work. This whole thing was created before I started this job so I'm not sure what query is linked to the Word document. Is there a way to tell which query is linked other than searching through each query for the necessary fields? I've already been loooking for about 2 hours now and I'm getting frustrated. I will probably just create another query here in a little bit but my boss seems to think there is a way to tell which query is linked to the Word document. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
You have to click the "paragraph" icon in the Word toolbar to look at all the fields in the file. One of them will reference the query, I think.

Be sure to open the template for the merge. It might not be in a file produced by the merge operation.
 
I tried to do that but couldn't find anything related to a query. Thanks for the help though.
 
I've tried several things from different people and none have worked. I think I have a different version than some people. Or maybe I'm just sutpid. I have Word 2002. If anyone has some other suggestions I would love to hear them. I'm in the process of creating a brand new query for this mail merge and it is a little confusing and time consuming. Thanks for the help.
