17.14.1 active (Record Is Included in Mail Merge)

This element specifies whether a specific record from the specified external data source shall be imported into a merged WordprocessingML document when the mail merge defined for a source document is performed. If this element's val attribute is false, then the record specified by the parent element shall not used to create a merged document.

If this element is omitted for a given record, the data record associated with it shall be imported into a merged WordprocessingML document when the mail merge is performed.

[Example: Consider the following fragment from a source WordprocessingML document that is connected to an external data source containing two records, one of which is not imported into a merged WordprocessingML document when the conforming hosting application performs the data import.

<w:recipients>
<w:recipientData>
<w:active w:val="false" />
…
<w:uniqueTag>1126664175</w:uniqueTag>
</w:recipientData>
<w:recipientData>
…
<w:uniqueTag>1530576378</w:uniqueTag>
</w:recipientData>
</w:recipients>

In this XML fragment, the external data record who is identified by the uniqueTag element (§17.14.35) with a val attribute equal to 1126664175 is not imported into a merged document as the active element associated with it has a val attribute equal to false. Conversely, the external data record associated with the uniqueTag element with a val attribute equal to 1530576378 is imported into a merged document, as its active element has been omitted (implying the default value of true). end example]
