--- Comment #7 from Brenda Granados <[email protected]> --- Hi, I am sorry. I am having trouble triaging this bug. This is my first time using master documents, and subdocuments, and I haven't used database fields frequently. I did find that I can print a mailmerge from the .odm. Please follow these instructions and let me know if they work for you! 1. Create a master document. 2. Edit -> Exchange Database 3. Insert the two documents (players.odt and countries.odt), using Navigator (F5). You will see two fields appear at the top. 4. In Navigator, highlight Text. Move up or down to make it center between the two documents in the Navigator. Click Edit at top of navigator. Write: "This is the main text of the master document. Player Name: Player Country:" 5. Now drag the <NAME> field next to the Name: ... and the <COUNTRY> field next to the Country: 6. Now print (to file)! You should get the results you're looking for. Please confirm, and I will mark this as works for me. I actually get a crash when trying to print to a printer, but I will file a new bug. There's also a much simpler way, unless you have to use master documents for some reason or other... You can go to the main menu toolbar, then Insert -> Fields -> Other -> Database tab. Click your database. On the left menu, select Mail merge fields. Insert the ones you want. This does not require subdocuments or a master document, it is all in one document.
