Default how do i save the list i create in mail merge?

Use the datasource for a Directory type mailmerge in the main document for
which you insert the mergefields in the cells of a one row table. When you
execute that merge to a new document, you will get a table containing a row
of data for each record in the datasource.

You can insert a row at the top of the table and enter the fieldnames into
the cells of that row and then save the document and use it as your data
source if you wish.
