Can a merge doc. in WP Be openend for merge in WORD?
There's no exact equivalent in Word of the this type of merge in
WordPerfect; you could approximate it by using a mail merge data source with a single record; you'd add the info to the data source and then perform the merge. But this is definitely overkill for a single record. The closest equivalent in Word would therefore be a UserForm, which accomplishes much the same thing: you type the required data into a form (like a wizard), then click a button, and the information is inserted at the appropriate places in the document.
