How to Make a Mail Merge and How it Can Help You


Making a mail merge is not as hard as you might think. All you have to do is type a generic letter or get one from the internet. You then go to "mailings" and click "start mail merge." Then you select the type of document, select which document to use (current document). Now you select the recipients. Select "browse," and select the excel document you put the names on. Now, highlight where you want to put the name, and click "more items." select the one that says "name" and click "insert." Select the place where you want to put the reason or whatever, and click "more items." Select "actions" and click insert. Now you can preview and print your letters.
In the future, this can help me when i write letters to a lot of people. Whether i am having a party or working, this tool will make it a lot easier to send to a lot of people. Its a lot better than typing a bunch of individual letters.
