Rather than consolidating information into one data source, is it not
possible to use multiple datas sources to pull information into your merged
document?

No, Word can only use a single flat file as a datasource.

Really SMART idea...
Only one data-source can save a Secretary's life but it is NOT ENOUGH!!!
Who has everything on one file?
Please add support for several data-sources with a service pack or an ad-don. This is hilarious.. Thank you m$. Evil or Very Mad
