I create all my mail merge data sources and main documents manually using
the Mail Merge toolbar, as described in

If you use the old MailMerge helper (still available even in 2007 and
covered on my web site in the mail merge pages) you can easily convert the
MDB file to a comma delimited Word data file. Granted it will no longer be
an MDB file, but it can be used as a data source for the merge, or it can
easily be converted to a table.

Thanks, Graham. I have no experience with that, as I still use Word
tables or Excel sheets as data sources. I don't like the fact that
the .mdb files can be edited only through the Wizard.

The data file created by the mail merge wizard is a user named file
with the extension MDB by default saved in the My Data Sources
folder? --

I believe the issue here is that the data source created by the Mail
Merge Wizard in recent versions of Word is not readily accessible.

Attach the file to an email just like you would any other file
type. Copy it to your flash drive just like you would any other file
type. Burn it to a CD just like you would any other file type.

I need to send my data source off a mail merge. I would like to
know how to
either email it or save it to a disc or flash? Any ideas?
