I have looked at Kallal's Super Easy Word Merge and it still seems to me
that there must be an easier way of doing it. If I basically copied my

control button to the "report" and fill it in with the last record data,
then print it ? ... Roger

That will work, but it's either limited or difficult. It works fine if the
table field data can be put in a fixed textbox on the report; the report need
not have a box around it, and its CanGrow and CanShrink properties will let it
expand or contract vertically, but if you're trying to fit a variable length
name into a paragraph of running text, it's a bit of work.

That is, you can get a paragraph like

Thank you, Pieter , for your help.

by using "Thank you, " in one Label control and ", for your help." in another,
with a textbox bound to VolunteerName in between; but to get a more natural
looking output, you must construct a concatenation of constant and variable
text in a calculated field in the query.
