Issue Creating a Macro Mail Merge

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I have created a Macro for AP Transaction, used MS Word to insert all fields and used the last step to Mail Mege (Finish & Merge), selected the option "Edit Individual Document" and then selected "All" in the dialog box, clicked OK. I have 3 issues:

1. It opens up another Word document with all Mail Merge data, why?

2. This newly opened up Word Mail Merged document won't let me save as .mac file.

3. If I save it as MS Word and then rename it to .mac, the Macro won't run.

RE: Issue Creating a Macro Mail Merge

Hi Jehan,

Save the mail merged Word document as "Plain Text". Once it is saved and you have closed the Word document, edit the file name and replace the ".txt" with ".mac". Once that is done, you will be able to go into GP and run the macro.
