A database can only be linked with one layout. If a layout which is already linked to a database
is selected, an error message is displayed.

2. In the "Database Fields That Can Be Merged:" list box in the Merge Fields dialog box, click
the field that you wish to merge into the layout.
To select more than one field, hold down the keyboard's Ctrl key while clicking all of the fileds
that you wish to merge. To select a range of fileds, click the first filed in the range, and then
hold down the keyboard's shift key while clicking the last field in the range of fields that you
wish to select.
