It really depends upon what you want in the output. If you want to pull
data from two tables, you would use a select query to link the tables on a
common field and use the query as the data source.
If you are talking about a "multiple items per condition (=key field)"
mailmerge, Word does not really have the ability to do it and I would use a
report in the database instead. However, see the "Group Multiple items for
a single condition" item on fellow MVP Cindy Meister's website at:

Or take a look at the following Knowledge Base Article:

Hi there,
I need to do a mail merge using a relational database i.e. Family Details
linked to Family members.
Can it be done? If so how?
Thanks
Tony
