I have a letter which is to be send to 1000 recepients.
When I run mailmerge in Word 2002, it always stops responding when it reached the 191 records no matter which record the merging starts from.
The same documents and mailmerge operation was performed on Word 97 and all 1000 letters was created.
Could this be a restriction set in the registry settings or is it a bug in Word 2002. Otherwise Word 2002 should be downward compatible with Word 97 and should also not cause this problem.

There is no restriction.
Try clearing out all TMP files Word leaves around. They start with a tilde (~). Delete
~*.*
Find and rename Normal.dot.
Try setting up the merge to a new document.
