When you close the list you are given the opportunity to name and save it as
an mdb format file. You can view or edit the entries from the wizard or from the merge toolbar command. Or you can access the earlier mailmerge helper (see http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm ) the second option of which will allow you to edit the data file, but interestingly it converts it to a table in Word document format, which when saved, can also be used as a data source for your merge. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Aisha wrote: hi,im trying to make a list of about 100 business in the "New Address list" through mail merge. i was wondering anyone knows how i can actually save it in order to view it for next time i need to merge letters to these businesses.its pretty urgent.PLease help asap.if possible you may also email me at ks |

Use the datasource for a Directory type mailmerge in the main document for
which you insert the mergefields in the cells of a one row table. When you execute that merge to a new document, you will get a table containing a row of data for each record in the datasource. You can insert a row at the top of the table and enter the fieldnames into the cells of that row and then save the document and use it as your data source if you wish. -- Hope this helps.
