Including Tables in a Word Merge Document

You can also add data to one or more existing tables in the resultant MS Word document if you have multiple records that you need to include.

• In the MS Word document you must create a table with the relevant number of columns. The table should only include a single row with the column headings (the heading do not have to match the field names within SmartSimple.)
• You do not have to create form fields within the table. New rows will be created automatically and populated with data in the order specified in in the MS Word Merge Custom Field Values section.
• Tables should be included at the very end of the Values section.
• The table you create in MS Word for the example above would look like this:
