Default Mailmerge from multiple Files

Hi ?B?U29uZHJh?=,

Is there a way to mail merge a letter from an access Database and within the
letter access another database to choose the proper information to go into
the fields.

It can be done, but if the result shouldn't be a table, it can be complex to
set up. In the mail merge FAQ on my website you'll find a short discussion on
complex "one-to-many" merge results with links to samples. The Database field
approach yields a table; the KB article allows you more flexibility in the
layout of the result, but is more difficult to set up.
