Use the Mail Merge Wizard to Make Mass Mailings Easy
The
Mail Merge feature in Word, which you can use to create many
personalized letters from one standard letter, has always
been a timesaver. But it was also tricky to learn and use,
especially for new users. Not anymore! The new Mail Merge
Wizard in Word version 2002 walks you through every step of
the process. It helps you:
1.
Select
the type of document: letter, label, envelope, or even
e-mail message.
2.
Open
or create a list of recipients, or choose individuals from
your Outlook Contacts.
3.
Insert
merge fields, such as name and address, into the document.
4.
Preview the document and remove any recipients before
merging.
5.
Print
the finished documents.
To
access this new feature:
1.
On the
Tools menu, point to Letters and Mailings, and
click Mail Merge Wizard.
2.
When
the Mail Merge task pane appears, simply follow the
instructions.
