Default Data sources for different mailmerge letters

I am working with Word 2003 and Access 2003 and I am using mailmerge to
complete some letters. I have multiple datasources that I use for different
letters. I would like to use some of the "columns" in one database with some
other "columns" in another data base. I am currently cut an pasting columns
and inserting them into an existing database, however, when I finish that,
the datasource will not allow me edit the mailmerge recipients, to enter the
data to show up in the mailmerge letter. The only way that I can enter the
data is to go to the Access database and enter the information and it will
then show up in the mailmerge letter. Otherwise, I have to re-develop the
whole datasource for the particular entries in need in the letter, is there
an eaier way?
