Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 26878
mail merge: see values in current document
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
In MS Word mail merge, the toolbar has icons for Prev/Next records, and the fields are updated in current document. The user is able to see this way if everything ok. Please implement this in OOo. Now, the only way to preview is Mail Merge -> Print to file, then open the file from a separate application.
