RE: [libreoffice-users] Writer Merge File

Hi All,
My name is Sandeep Pattanayak. I work for a company called System
Automation. I would like to know if there is any equivalent of the way
mail merge is automated in word (word mail merge automation). This
involves using a document template and then replacing all the merge
fields with data at runtime.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Writer Merge File

After some experimenting it seems to me that if I set up a Writer 
document to link to a csv file as its datasource it stays with 
exactly that file.  If I try to include new data by making a new 
version of the merge file (ie, exactly the same name), I don't get 
the new data, only the old data.

Have I misunderstood, or observed wrongly, somewhere?
