Take a look at
http://gmayor.com/convert_labels_into_mail_merge.htm.
You may easily be able to convert your current document into a table.
Depends. Is it comma or tab-delimited? Try (in a copy) selecting your data
and using Convert text-to-table under the tables menu. See what happens.
http://addbalance.com/word/wordwebre....htm#mailmerge is a list of
links. You may especially find those from Cindy Meister and Graham Mayor
helpful.
Note, long-term it is not a good idea to be using converted documents. They
are always filled with weird formatting and more prone to corruption. This
especially applies to tables.

The data file is in WP table. When I open it in Word 2000 there is no
table.
Only a list of data for each field and separate pages for each record. Do
I
have to recreate the entire WP merge file in Word 2000? We no longer have
WP
on our computers. Thank you.
