private void DocumentMailMerge()
{
    this.MailMerge.OpenDataSource("C:\\test.mdb",
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing,
        ref missing, ref missing, ref missing);
        this.MailMerge.Execute(ref missing);
}
Private Sub DocumentMailMerge()
    Me.MailMerge.OpenDataSource("C:\test.mdb")
    Me.MailMerge.Execute()
End Sub
