Description claudio 2023-12-04 14:11:53 UTC
Description:
Goal: To create documents to link to a general database of addresses of people and companies, through Mail Merge Wizard... produce individual documents for the names of interest found in the general address database.


    1) I created a spreadsheet (addresses.ods) in which I entered the addresses of three people.
    2) I created a database (addresses1.odb) by importing the data from the spreadsheet.
    3) In write I created a document (printerseriesaddresses2.odt) in which I enter the address I take from the database and through mail merge (Tools → Mail Merge Wizard...) 
    4) I create separate documents with the Save Merge Documents command, for the three people in the database.
The procedure so far, (steps 1 through 4), works correctly, at the end I get the three documents.
Steps 1 through 3 give no problems.
Things don't work correctly in step 4 if I start selecting the documents I want to create, i.e., I exclude one or two addresses with the Exclude recipient checkbox, and execute the command with the Save merged documents button, the procedure does not return me the only requested documents.
I assume that this malfunction also affects the Edit individual Documents, Print Merged Documents, Send Email Messagges commands.
