Help.

Its late, I'm working on an unfamiliar machine, with some software I'm not too experienced with and I'm going round in circles.

I need to do a data merge, and Adobe's website tells me I need the PageMaker Plug-In Pack, and that it ships with Adobe CS. I'm sitting here with the CS pack and I must be going blind as well as mad because I can't find the PageMaker Plug-In Pack anywhere.

InD is already installed, but there's no Data merge item on the Window menu.

Any ideas?

Oh, Ok, never mind.
It seems that this copy of CS was bought too soon.
Now its $49 to get the pack that shipped free with later versions. And a long download too.

I think it will be quicker to put the data on a usb stick, drive home and re-do it all in Corel.

There's a write up here - http://www.creativepro.com/story/review/21158.html - it's kind of interesting didn't realize Robin Williams (where is she now?) was a PageMaker fan.
