When setting the mail merge data source using the code below i am unable to see the field names in the "Insert merge field" drop down on the mail merge tool bar.
What am i missing to be able to set merge fields?
NDBMailMergeDataSource nDBMailMergeDataSource = new NDBMailMergeDataSource(Nevron.Nov.Data.ENDbConnectionType.SqlServer, "Data Source=w10Mike;Initial Catalog=Pats;Integrated Security=True", "SELECT Id, field1, field2 FROM tableone");

    
    this.RichTextView.Content.MailMerge.DataSource = nDBMailMergeDataSource;

Hi Mike,
We tested with Community edition and it was working, however you probably need to enable Just My Code debugger option in order not to break on exceptions in Presentation.dll. These exceptions btw are normal and are caused by the font interpretter when it rebuilds the font previews - certain fonts contain bad hinting code and fail to hint correctly. There was an issue in the field preview (DB connection cloning was not correct) which is fixed and will appear in the next version. Let us know how it goes when you turn on Just My Code from the debugger options...

Best Regards,
Nevron Support Team
