How to mail merge?

Question

Could you plz give me a step by step guide, of how to mail merge on Microsoft Word

Answer 1

This is way too involved to put in a response on here step by step. You can get directions from your Help function. Basically you need to create a data source where your data is in headed columns, and you can do it in Excel and cut and paste into a Word doc. You need to read the directions first so you know how to label your header row.

Then you need to create the doc you are going to mail merge, using the proper insertion cues.

Then, you click on Mail Merge and begin to follow the menu-driven process to import your data.

The Microsoft website has a Mail Merge tutorial. It takes about 15 minutes to track through it. Then you can practice.

Answer 2

Mail merge is not a base level word app. It takes more than a few lines to explain it all.

Answer 3

This is the most comprehensive guide to mail merge outside of using online help:

Answer 4

Please tell me your version Word.... The process is different for Word 2000 and Word 2003. You should find a wizard in Tools - Letters and Mailings...... If your dealin with 2003, follow your panel on the right - it will guide you - kind of a pain.
