adding to Mail merge doc?
Office 2k
Have a master contact list in Excel. Created mail merge doc in Word for labels. Have added names to the Excel sheet. Is this possible to add these names to the .doc or will I have to retype them into mail merge doc.? If it is possible, how hard vs retyping? I only have ~ 15 names but more will be added. Thanks, |

adding to Mail merge doc?
In Word you have a Mail Merge Main Document, which is typically a 1-page
label layout, and when you merge you can either merge to the printer or merge to a new output document. To include your 15 new addresses in the output it would usually be simpler to start with your Mail Merge Main Document and re-do the merge to a new output document. If you need to use the same label layout again and again, it's best to save that Mail Merge Main Document so you do not have to redo the label layout every time you want to merge to labels.
