VBA Excel mail merge to publisher

Question

I created a macro to execute a mail merge in word, now i need to set one up for publisher but it seems that publisher uses different object codes, anyone know how i can adapt my code to publisher

WORD VBA:

Sub MailMergeWD()  
  
  
Dim wd As Object  
    Dim wdocSource As Object  
  
    Dim strWorkbookName As String  
  
    On Error Resume Next  
    Set wd = GetObject(, "Word.Application") 'open word  
    wd.Quit savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges ' closes word  
    wd.DisplayAlerts = 0 'dont bother me with alerts about normal template  
    Set wd = CreateObject("Word.Application") 'open word again  
      
    On Error GoTo 0  
      
    Set wdocSource = wd.Documents.Open("E:\users\sample.docx") 'ADD YOUR FILE PATH  
  
    strWorkbookName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & ThisWorkbook.Name  
  
    wdocSource.MailMerge.MainDocumentType = wdFormLetters  
      
      
   wdocSource.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _  
            Name:=strWorkbookName, _  
            AddToRecentFiles:=False, _  
            Revert:=False, _  
            Format:=wdOpenFormatAuto, _  
            Connection:="Data Source=" & strWorkbookName & ";Mode=Read", _  
            sqlstatement:="SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$] " & _  
            "WHERE [Column1] > '0.00' " & _  
            "AND [Column2] like'%mark%'" 'add your SQL filter  
                          
          
    With wdocSource.MailMerge  
        .Destination = wdSendToNewDocument  
        .SuppressBlankLines = True  
        With .DataSource  
            .FirstRecord = wdDefaultFirstRecord  
            .LastRecord = wdDefaultLastRecord  
        End With  
        On Error GoTo End_Sub_error 'if error end sub  
        .Execute Pause:=False  
    End With  
  
    wd.Visible = True  
    wdocSource.Close savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges 'WILL CLOSE SOURCE  
    wd.PrintOut 'WILL PRINT MAIL MERGE  
    wd.ActiveDocument.Close savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges 'WILL CLOSE MAIL MERGE  
    On Error Resume Next 'WILL PAUSE CODE  
    wd.Quit 'WILL CLOSE WORD  
    GoTo continue_now 'end sub  
      
End_Sub_error:  
    wd.Quit savechanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges  
      
continue_now:  
      
    Set wdocSource = Nothing  
    Set wd = Nothing  
      
End Sub

1. I was asking about publisher now word. I only see reference to word.
   2. [Solved] I finally figured out how to run the vba, apply my filters and a few other problems i found along the way - there is hardly any info about publisher mail merge out there.

code:

  Sub MergeToPub ()  
  Dim strWorkbookName As String  
  Dim pubSource As Object  
 Dim mrgMain As MailMerge  
 Dim appPub As New Publisher.Application  
 Dim FileLink As String  

  strWorkbookName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & ThisWorkbook.Name  
  FileLink = [MailMergePub].Value  
  appPub.ActiveWindow.Visible = True  
  Set pubSource = appPub.Open(FileLink)  
  Set mrgMain = pubSource.MailMerge  

 'before i added this next line of code, for some reason   
 'it added the same data source twice and merged duplicate results  
 If pubSource.MailMerge.DataSource.Name = strWorkbookName Then GoTo ContinueCode  


pubSource.MailMerge.OpenDataSource _  
    bstrDataSource:=strWorkbookName, _  
    bstrTable:="Sheet1$", _  
    fNeverPrompt:=True  

ContinueCode:  
'this adds two filters  
  With mrgMain.DataSource  
    .Filters.Add Column:="Column1", _  
       Comparison:=msoFilterComparisonEqual, _  
       Conjunction:=msoFilterConjunctionAnd, _  
       bstrCompareTo:="Name"  

  .Filters.Add Column:="Column2", _  

  Comparison:=msoFilterComparisonNotEqual, _  
       Conjunction:=msoFilterConjunctionAnd, _  
       bstrCompareTo:="yes"  
       .ApplyFilter  

    .FirstRecord = pbDefaultFirstRecord  
    .LastRecord = pbDefaultLastRecord  
End With  

mrgMain.Execute False,   
pbMergeToNewPublication  
pubSource.Close  
Set appPub = Nothing  
Set pubSource = Nothing  
End Sub
