@dhislop:
I did not try your example, but my own experience tells me that this report is
invalid. There are 2 possibilities to filter for mail merge:
1. If you use the standard print dialogue for mail merge, you will be asked
whether you want to print a mail merge letter (if the document contains mail
merge address fields), and in this mode always the filter you used before
printout will be respected.
2. If you use menu "Tools > Mail Merge Wizzard", you will have to filter in
'step 3 "Insert Address Block" > Filter'
I checked with "2.2.0RC4 German version WIN XP: [680m14(Build9134)]", and
everything worked as expected.
So I believe we can close this issue as INVALID, or is there any hint in HELP or
other documentation that for proceeding 2 the filter result of the data source
editor should be relevant?
@ufi
I agree, this filter proceeding can't be found easily, may be HELP or UI should
mention it in a prominent way.
