Explanation:
1. Choose your document type - Within the mailings tab click the start mail merge button and a drop down will appear. You can choose from labels, envelopes, emails, letters or a directory.
2. Select your recipients - Here you can choose to "type a new list" where you enter the recipients into a database one by one, "use an existing list" such as a spreadsheet to import the data or "select from your Outlook contacts". You can then edit the recipient data should you wish.
3. Write & insert fields - Now that your document is linked to your recipient data you can add the individual personalization fields. This includes address fields (use the "address block" button) and greeting line (e.g. dear Sir or Madam, recipient's first name etc).
4. Preview results - Check that the fields you've inserted are pulling the correct data through (e.g. the town field isn't pulling through the county information) and positioned correctly on your document.
5. Finish & merge - Now that you're happy with your content, and the correct data fields are being imported, you can finish and merge the document and your data to create the final product. sorry but I found 5 points
Mail merge consists in combining mail and letters and pre-addressed envelopes or mailing labels for mass mailings from a form letter.
Microsoft Word can insert content from a database, spreadsheet, or table into Word documents.
This feature is usually employed in a word processing document which contains fixed text (which is the same in each output document) and variables (which act as placeholders that are replaced by text from the data source).
Mail Merge is a powerful tool for writing a personalized letter or E-mail to many people at the same time. It imports data from another source such as Excel and then uses that to replace placeholders throughout the message with the relevant information for each individual that is being messaged.
