Default Importing Data to specific Fields in a Word Document

yes it could end up being quite a lot of data. This is a installation
checklist for an IT dept when we swap out old systems for new ones and we
wanted to try and fill in as much as we can prior to sending it out to the
tech

Ill take a look at that macro. When you say 3 different records do
you mean 3 different excel spreadsheets. Lets say I have a
spreadsheet with 50 different rows of input is each line a new record
?

If you want three similar documents with different data you need
three records, then merge to a new document.
Had it been Word 2002/3 you could then split the merge using the
add-in at http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm , but I
doubt that this will work with 2007 (you could try the macro on that
web page).

ok I figured out that I can use mail merge to move the data i
needed, When i click the mail merge button and choose edit in
indivdual documents it gives me an individual page for set of data,
but NOT 1 page in 3 actual documents.

So now i have 3 pages in document with 3 sets of info. I need to be
able to save each page indivdually, i would think the edit in
individual document would do that but it didnt or did i miss a step
or do something wrong.
