--- Comment #12 from m...@willpom.com ---
Firstly this was regards to 4.2.2.1, and is still current in Version: 4.2.8.2
Build ID: 48d50dbfc06349262c9d50868e5c1f630a573ebd

I am loathed to bother upgrading past 4.1.6 because every time I do something
else fucks up; mailmerge, line formats, cell referencing, spacing, yawn yawn
yawn. Running a small business and looking after an autistic kid at the same
time I don't have the energy to re format my work every time and submit bugs.
Instead I now donate.

Use the 2 attachments. Follow my previous instructions.

Simply
Open template >Edit >Exchange database >Browse - find the attached Data source
- expand - select 'data' sheet.
>File >Save as >'Test_doc.odt'
Exit/close document - I simply click the top right 'x'.

You'd expect the 'data' sheet from 'Test_Data.ods' to be now linked to
'Test_doc.odt' as the datasource.

Re-open 'Test_doc.odt' >Tools >Mailmerge wizard... >Next to '3.Insert address
block' - here the 'Select Address List' should display the datasource
previously saved underneath ie "Current address list: Test_Data"

It does not! You then have to go through the rigmarole of selecting the
datasource, changing the table everytime you want to use the mailmerge.

4.1.6 the datasource from the exchange database is saved in the wizard. If this
is the same for 4.3.x then fair play, if you can confirm that and there are no
other silly bugs, format changes etc I may consider upgrading.
