So cool! Thank you for taking time to put together this video. In case anyone else gets the '5941' error, double-check that you have the column names exactly as described. Took me a while to figure out that I did not, in fact, have them correct!
This is an incredible tutorial!! Not only do you explain each step of the process, you also assume the user may not have certain features displayed, so you provide additional details throughout the process. I am an avid fan of what you're doing!
OMG one of the most useful & helpful videos I've ever seen in my life! I was despairing this morning thinking about having to individually name 350 PDF files. And then discovered this! I can't thank you enough, not just for doing the video & supplying the macro, but for the fantastic way you explained it all & took us through what to do. A true leader & educator! THANK YOU!💥👋🙏🏅🏆
The level of gratitude I have for this is indescribable! Oh man, I had been working on this for countless hours and then this! I was initially like please don't make me download 3rd party apps, etc, etc. BUUUTTT THIS! Amazing. Thank you!
I cannot explain in words how useful this video has been for me. This has saved me hours of work and heartache, thank you so much. And so beautifully explained, thank you.
This is amazing. I have no experience of Macros, and this allowed me to do exactly what I needed to do, and has saved me so much time. The instruction was really clear and simple. Thank you very much!
I can't even begin to tell you how helpful this has been. I've been searching the internet like crazy, and everything I found required me to download another piece of software (which I can't do as I don't have administrator rights on my work computer). I was able to sit back and watch my computer handle the approx 750 mail merged documents with ease. I can't even tell you how amazing this is. Thank you, thank you thank you. And an extra thank you for walking through the macro line by line so I knew there wasn't any "funny business" in there. LOL.
Just what I was looking for, a million thank you's for your work and code, saving me so much time at work, and for being so generous in providing the mac code as well!
It's like magic. Had to save & close both the letter & excel list first because i was getting the mentioned '5491' error. Also make sure you added columns are titled correctly. then after reopening and running it works. appreciate it - my team will now think i'm a genius.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! You've saved me hours and hours of tedious work . Your instructions were clear, concise and thorough. I was skeptical that this would require almost as much effort as creating merge files one by one. In the end it was very simple to implement.
I am so glad that this tutorial is still available! It saved me tons of work hours by allowing me merge and save countless docs to pdf files instead creating them one by one. Thank you for sharing your expertise and for making the process so simple.
This is the coolest freaking thing ever. It's something that works so seamlessly that it feels like it should be a native feature in Word's merge mail. Awesome job. Thank you.
You are a saint! I've been fighting with an older marco for over 3 hours trying to get it to work. Now I have what I need to finish those annoying tax receipt mail outs! Thank you!!
This is the first time that I've ever posted a review. This tutorial is amazing. I followed the process expecting it to fail but it worked perfectly! Thank you for saving me hours of work. Very much appreciated!
Thanks so much!! This code and video are life savers! As a non-coder, the explanations were well thought through and easy to follow. I appreciate you :)
This is FANTASTIC!!! Just saved me hours of renaming individually!! THANKS SO MUCH!! Took me about 30mins to setup and now I'm off and running!! Thanks!
Sir, your code will save many lives and many hours. This is exactly what I was looking for and you explained it exceptionally well. Thank you so much for your generosity!
Great video - thanks for sharing for free! I eliminated the single word file saving to only generate the PDFs with your in depth explanation, so thankful for this!
Hello, This is Leela from India. A big thank you for your help and support , Your a life saver :-) your easy step by step video , saved my life , I was struggling to save 100 letters , the instructions were so easy - even the copying of the macros from your website was easy.
Hi, the first word file was create and then it ran into an error Run-time error'5941': The requested number of the collection does not exist. Help! It's ok. I read some of your replies to others who had this issues. The column headers were not named correctly. Thank you for sharing the macro. It worked liked magic!!
This is very well explained training! Break it down very nicely to understand and use it. Thank you and appreciate it. I would like to watch other training you have on youtube...Have a great day!
This was an amazing tutorial. I have to create hundreds of separate documents and our IT team blocked the previous word add-in for security concerns. This was so clear and easy and even better it worked perfectly the first time. A very well designed piece of VB code, thank you so much!
OMG I just danced & jumped around the office. I just did 585 construction log records in 45 minutes!!! Just splitting the files and renaming woukd have taken me a week. Thanks, Thanks Thanks
This is an AMAZING tutorial. I have been watching youtube coding videos for years. This is by FAR the best one out there. Great job and thank you for making it. It is exactly what I needed, clearly described and will help me tremendously.
Fantastic! This macro just saved probably 20 hours of work trying to do this one by one. Thank you! The video is very well done, easy to follow and excellent teaching skills
Exactly what I was looking for! I have to make individualized reports for my students. 8 minutes of this video saved me an hour's slog I have to do several times a year. Thanks!
Wow! Not only are this tutorial and resources really helpful, but also the neatness with which the macros codes are written is simply beautiful! Thank you!
we got this to work after a few failed attempts and found that we were missing an = sign in one of the columns of the excel spread sheet this has changed our world in terms of workload. thanks guys.
I cannot thank you enough!! 1214 documents that I would have had to manually change the file name on and move to specific folders - you saved me SOOOO much time! Subscribing and going to watch all your videos and watch all the way through the ads so you can get credit for the watch time etc. - being a content creator, I know those things can help with income :)
@@Imnoss Do you have similar video but 1 file pdf has multiple pages. For example: I sent certificates to the employees of the same company, i only sent it to one PIC, and one file pdf containing multiple certificates.
THANK YOUU!! I used a different tutorial that required you to write the macro as they didn't provide it. While it worked, it took a very long time to produce the results. This worked for my ~100 files. THANK YOU
hi, just want to say thank you. instead of subscribe adobe pdf pro version or take the risk to upload the confidential pdf to online pdf splitter, this just works!

This is beyond amazing ! At first , i thought its impossible , but i just thought that i should at least give it a try ! and trust me , i cannot thank you enough for this . This indeed was a life saver !
Works great. I was having a problem because I left the mail merge wizard open when I tried to execute the macro, but once I closed it this worked really well. Thanks
Thank you so much for the clear explination and saving me a lot of work splitting up 120 documents into Word and PDF format. You are the hero of the day :-)!
This is AWESOME! Million thanks Imnoss! I had a problem in the beginning, the data for naming the files contain characters that cannot be used for file names in windows.

Thank you for this wonderful tutorial. Not only is it a very effective macro, the way you have documented and explained it empowers the user to tweak it even more. Great job.
I’ve been using this over the last week to create and send out approximately 6000 letters and emails. The VB engine in this example, and in the example from your other video works absolutely perfectly and save me and my team are lots of time. The only issue that arose was with the wild cards used in the V look up. In some cases, the wild cards may need to be customised so that they can differentiate between individuals with the same name. What I had to do, was to include the date of birth as part of the wild card, so that there was more than just a name to select from.
This seems incredible, but is not working for me. Can someone PLEASE help??? I am getting run time error 5941 "The requested member of collection does not exist." When I debug, this line is highlighted: singleDoc.SaveAs2 _ FileName:=masterDoc.MailMerge.DataSource.DataFields("DocFolderPath").Value & Application.PathSeparator & _ masterDoc.MailMerge.DataSource.DataFields("DocFileName").Value & ".docx", _ FileFormat:=wdFormatXMLDocument ' Save "singleDoc" as a word docx with the details provided in the DocFolderPath and DocFileName fields in the MailMerge data I am desperate.
