Vista - Merge documents

We recently upgraded our Word and Access applications to 2007. Natually, we
want to use all previous merge documents and database records which were
created in previous Word and Access versions. Our database records display
in a form/window view and users search for a record, click on a link button
to generate a Word document and then select a document from a list of merge
documents. These documents contain merge fields such as name, address,
complaint number, etc. In the previous version of Word, when I wanted to
make a change to the merge document, I went to Tools, unprotect, made the
change, saved the change and protected the document. Since we have upgraded
to Word 2007, that function has changed. Now when I make a change to a merge
document and save that change (which is not a merge field), the data in the
merge fields remains regardless of which record I open or go to, which makes
the merge document worthless. Any suggestions as to why this is happening?
I was told that in Word 2007, I should select Mailings tab, click Start Mail
Merge and make sure the document type is set to Normal Word Document. This
did not solve the problem. Any suggestions?

is for .NET issues.

Try this to find the discussion group(s) you need.

As you appear to be using a web interface, try this:

In the tree on the left, open English, then open Office and Desktop
Applications. In the Office and Desktop Applications subcategory, find and
open the Access or Word subcategories. Find groups there for your question.
