I modified a script that performs a Data Merge. Everything works great, but it creates a new document (which is inherently what happens if you Data Merge manually). Is there anyway to not create a new document?

This is what I am using:

var selectDataSource = "Data Merge: *.txt";
var myDataSource = File.openDialog("Select Data Source");
app.activeDocument.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataSource);
app.activeDocument.dataMergeProperties.mergeRecords();

Thanks for any help.
