It is not really clear what you are trying to achieve.

What exactly are you starting with and what do you want to end up with?


Thank you for your reply; I am sorry I was not clear.

I have been given a 1 sheet .xls which prints as one page. This is
logically equivalent to a main document for a normal mail merge. I do
not have any program or the skill to produce an equivalent .doc.

I have several sets of data which are not yet encoded into any file.
I currently produce several .xls files by manually merging that "data
source". That manual process is unreliable as it depends on me being
more accurate than I can achieve.

I was hoping to get ideas in this group for a comparitively-easy
mechanical process. It would be tedious and inefficient to write VBA to
merge a .xls data source into my .xls "main document".

I have tried to use Office 2003 terminology. I hope my need is now
clear.
