Creating Merge Data Fields

The following procedure is explained using the same example presented on page E-27. It assumes that you have already named the fields (page E-27)

and input the applicable record data (page E-28).

1. On the [Edit] menu, point to [Add Field] and then click [Add Text Field] to display the [Add Text Field] dialog box.

2. Check the [Merge Printing] checkbox.

3. Click the arrow to the right of the field name text box.

4. Click ”Number”.

• Selecting a merge field that does not have any text input inside it inputs the name of the merge field as the text.

• If there are two or more entries of the same field name in the list, the topmost field with the same name will always be selected, even if you click

another one.

5. Input some blank spaces or some text into the text input box.

• Note that a text field cannot be created unless something is input into the text input box. This is why you must at least input some blank spaces

here. Note that the size of the field that is created is affected by the number of spaces you input.

6. Make style, layout, and other settings as you do for a standard (non-merge) text field, and click [OK] when you are finished.

• If you select [Auto] for text alignment, the size of the text field is automatically adjusted in accordance with the size of the text field box.

7. Specify the size of the text field and the font size if you want.

• See ”Changing Font Settings” on page E-17 for details on making font settings.

8. Repeat steps 1 through 7 for the ”Title” and ”Name” fields.

• Text fields that are also merge fields are colored blue on the display.

• Use the procedure under ”Displaying a Record in the Layout Window” on page E-30 when you want to print the contents of a specific record.

• See ”Merge Printing” on page E-35 for details on merge printing.
