Hello

I use mail merge regularly in my job but normally only three fields so
I need to customise it (or rather I prefer to customise it every time
as it is easier to enter the details).

Is there any way to set it up so that only three fields appear when I
choose mail merge? I tried using a macro but that didn't work.

Thank you

Just put the three that you want in the mail merge main document in the
configuration that you want. Don't worry about the others.

The number of fields available for mail merge depends on the number of
fields in your data source. You don't have to include them all in your mail
merge main document. What exactly are you trying to do?
