From: Fred Boer on 5 Feb 2010 09:39 Hi all: When I do a mail merge, I merge data to a Word Template (.dot) file, not a Word (.doc) file. So, every time I want to do a merge I have to remember to change the file selection filter from "Word Documents (*.doc)" to "All files (*.*)". Is there any way to change this to make "All files (*.*) the default?
