Mail Merge from an Excel Worksheet problem
Hi! When I try to mail merge from an Excel Worksheet of about 100 addresses, Word somehow includes the empty rows in the worksheet where there is not info. there. I ended up have a 6xx pages long merge, not a 100 pages one. Is there a way in Excel to solve this problem Also, after I enter data for the last column of an entry, how can I make the current cell (the one that being modified or selected, am I using the right term?) jump to the first column of the next row with just hitting the "->" key Thanks for any idea. :)

New, There's a query capability built into Word's Mail Merge (in 2002, at least -- don't know about 2000). You could use that to have it include only records with data in a certain column. If the rows in the Excel list are totally empty, maybe you want to delete them, consolidating the list. I think there's code to do that at www.cpearson.com. -- Earl Kiosterud mvpearl omitthisword at verizon period net ------------------------------------------- "newbie_D" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:1E87840A-79B7-400A-9D51-52823EB2985C@microsoft.com... > Hi!

frank.kabelfor Part 2 of your question involving navigation within a worksheet,
:

You would unlock the cells in columns A:F for instance, leaving
G:IV cells locked under Tools --> cells -->Protection. then turn
on sheet protection Tools --> protection --> sheet
But you would have to use the TAB key not the ArrowRt key.
Another way
would be to use an Event macro. Please read the topic
not just the code. Install by RClick on worksheet tab, insert code.
Worksheet_SelectionChange to prevent entry past a column (#ws_sc
Worksheet Events and Workbook Events
http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/event.htm#ws_sc
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.column < 4 then exit sub
On error resume next 'MUST reenable events...
Application.EnableEvents = False
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 1 - Target.Column).Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Note use of any macro prevents you from using UNDO (ctrl+z),
so you might take another look at worksheet protection and use
of the TAB key.
Sometimes putting two questions in the same posting helps, when
both questions are related and can be quickly answered. Frequently
it works against you delaying your answers. This one worked against you.
And it works against those who simply search newsgroups for answers
because the subject has nothing to do with this part of your question..
In fact the first part of your question doesn't really fit the subject either.

Now when you use Mail Merge select the range that includes the cells with data. You could delete the blank rows at this point unless there is some reason you need them. >,; >,;Also, after I enter data for the last column of an entry, how can I make the current cell >(the one that being modified or selected, am I using the right term?) jump to the first >column of the next row with just hitting the "->" key? What version of Excel? Mine (Excel 2000) does this if you hit the "Enter" key at the end of a row. Also you could click on <Data> then on <Form> and use this to enter data.
dwilkinsThanks for all the help, I will try them when I go back to office next week. :)
