= SUMMARY =

The Microsoft Word error message:

Not a valid filename

may appear when performing a Print Merge with a header file. This error message occurs in Word version 5.0 when the Options “decimal character:” field is set to a comma rather than a period (.). The error message will occur in Word version 5.5 if Utilities Customize Decimal and in 6.0 if Tools Customize Decimal is set to a comma. If the decimal character is set to a period, the print merge will execute properly.
