When I try to print letters for customers, instead of printing to a Word document, the letters are downloaded to a worddata.doc file on my computer that I cannot open.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Hello there, @WRIMW.
One of the programs may cause this issue. Let's fix it by running the QuickBooks Print and Print Repair Tool from QuickBooks Tool Hub.
It will help resolve common errors. Let me show you how:
From the Tool Hub, run the QuickBooks PDF and Print Repair Tool.
I'll be sharing this article as your reference when you have print and PDF problems with QBDT: Troubleshoot PDF and Print problems with QuickBooks Desktop. These include other solutions to resolve printing issues like fixing XPS Document Writer.
I added this article if you need help in tracking customer transactions: Get started with customer transaction workflows in QuickBooks Desktop.

None of this works, I spent 3 days on the phone with support last week, was sent to Level 2 support and they said it was an issue on the QB side, not my computer or programs at all. That was 4 days ago and they are supposed to be working on a fix for this but I've heard nothing back and there are no program updates.
I have this same issue. I made sure that my software is up-to-date, and I ran the repair tool. No resolution. I have QB DT Pro 2020. Please advise.
I am experiencing the same issue. I have tried all the application repair options from the Quickbooks Tool Hub. I have repaired, uninstalled, reinstalled office 365, rebooted, and still the same problem. Tried it with 2 different quickbooks company files. Using Quickbooks Desktop Pro Plus 2022 on Windows 11 with Office365.
It appears it creates a worddata.doc file in the Public user Quickbooks documents directory but fails to merge with the mailmerge document and then deletes the worddata.doc file. Don't see the file in any temp directory
I upgraded to QB Desktop 2023 and have not been able to print letters since. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Word and QB and that didn't fix anything. Downloaded the Toolhub- that doesn't work. Could QB please get back to us on what the issue is and when it might be fixed?
