When you execute the merge, one of the possible destinations is to email.
If you select that option, you will then be asked which field in the data
source contains the email addresses.
You said in your original post that you had "200 names, addresses then email
addresses. typed in paragraph format."
You should select all of those paragraphs and use the Convert Text to Table
feature under the Tables menu to convert the document into a table with one
record on each row of the table. You may need to insert a row at the top of
the table into the cells of which you enter the names of the merge fields
(if the first paragraph does not contain them).

THANK YOU SO MUCH,
1 QUESTION, WHAT ABOUT THE EMAIL FIELD. IS THERE A WAY TO PULL THE EMAIL
ADDRESSES, AND DUMP THEM INTO OUTLOOK TO EMAIL EACH INDIVIDUAL LETTER?
EXAMPLE:
JOHN DOE
1234 TREE STREET
WASHINGTON, DC 20000
YOU TOLD ME HOW TO MERGE THE LETTERS, AND ALSO CREATE THE DEAR FIELD.
BUT,
IS THERE A WAY TO PULL THE EMAIL ADDRESSES FROM THE DATA FIELD TO EMAIL
EACH
INDIVIDUAL LETTER?
