Mail Merge in Microsoft Office
By: Lynn Smith

Mail merge is a tool that is used when you want to create a set of documents, such as a form letter that is sent to many customers. Each letter has the same kind of information, yet the content is unique. For example, the body of the letter would be the same to every recipient, but the address and a dollar amount would be unique to each person.

1. Set up the letter

The letter contains the text and/or graphics that are the same for each recipient — for example, the return address or complimentary close.

2. Connect the letter to a data source.

A data source is a file that contains the information to be merged into a document. For example, the names and addresses of the recipients of a letter.

3. Add mail merge fields.

When you perform the mail merge, the mail merge fields are filled with information from your data file.

4. Preview and Complete the Merge.
