Hi,

I have made a macro in word which have worked perfectly until last week. It is a macro which ensure that the word document is connected to an excel spreadsheet, regardless of whether the files are copied to another folder in a mail merge.

Do you know what is wrong with the following macro?


Private Sub Document_Open()
Dim Aktuelsti As String, Saldodata As String

Aktuelsti = ActiveDocument.Path

Saldodata = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"User ID=Admin;" & _
"Data Source=" & Aktuelsti & "\data.xls;" & _
"Mode=Read;" & _
"Extended Properties=""HDR=YES;IMEX=1;"";" & _
"Jet OLEDB:System database="""";" & _
"Jet OLEDB:Registry Path="""";" & _
"Jet OLEDB:Database Passw"

ActiveDocument.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _
Name:=Aktuelsti & "\data.xls", _
LinkToSource:=True, _
Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, _
SQLStatement:="SELECT * FROM `Dansk$`", _
SQLStatement1:="", _
SubType:=wdMergeSubTypeAccess

fjeldgaard, if you can share the entire piece of the code, and also the source files, we could test and try to figure out. Just using your couple of lines above isn't helping.
