Hi Gulsah. Can you please see this, if you could do it. Thanks. Hi Timur, I couldn't understand the request. Can you give more details for the use case? This request is not for a general LO user, but for testers and advances users. If we want to test Mail Merge, we should be able to quickly set it up, not to add each time external database. Example is bug 139906, you wouldn't have to create and register simple.ods, but you could just use built-in adresses. Most simple (for me) would be to use View-Data Sources and select (now non-existing, here asked for) built-in database "Mail Merge" with pre-populated common fields: Title First Name Last Name Email Address Password So, idea is to create new database, like an existing Bibliography. Feel free to add some more fields and more records. Mail Merge can be used via Tools-Wizard but now it also can use only Bibliography, which doesn't have fields commonly used in mail merge. |
