Hi,

I have made a mailmerge with excel and word on my local drive however as I have to roll this out for 8 people in my team I have a few questions I'm hoping to get some expert answers for

- if I copied all the files from my local and put it onto a shared drive and if they copied, would this work on their local drive (will change file paths within the code)

- will my word documents be linked with the excel file once I have copied this over to my team members personal drive?

- what's the best method to get these across to the team?

Thanks all

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
I am afraid that it works for me, hopefully someone else might spot some other issue.

I have a shared drive for the team and I, if I uploaded the documents there could they just copy and paste onto their drive?

I don't want to say yes or no because a) you should be able to send them via email if they are docm and b) I avoid shared drives whenever possible.
