Hi all, I already have a word document with mail merge linked to the excel spreadsheet. Now I created a button in this spreadsheet and I want to be able to click and open the word document. I have tried several times, but it will only open the word document with no mail merge.

I tried all the following answers for help, but all of them will only open word document with missing mail merge. And yes I enabled reference 'MS Word 14.0 object library' and 'MS Form 2.0 object library'
