How is the data arranged in the document?

A Word document containing a table in which the cells in the first row are
the field names can be used as a datasource for a mailmerge.

See "Convert Labels into Mail Merge Data File" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's
website at:

Somehow I have saved the database I thought I was creating as a word doc.
Initially I was trying to add to my existing datasource, but I don't know
what happened from there. My main stress is that I really don't want to
have
to re-type all of these hundreds of clients' names and addresses again!!
Is
there anyone knows if you can transfer info to existing database/address
list? Or even just converting the existing info into a new one would be
just
fine with me! I would much rather have to do a mail merge twice than
re-type
all of this stuff again. PLEASE HELP!

THANK YOU!!!
