Default How do I merge into a nice looking list?

Brilliant! My challenge is put to rest.

Most sincerely,

Use a Catalog, or in Word XP and later, it is called a Directory, type
mailmerge main document. In that document, insert a one row table and into
the cells of that table, insert the merge fields that you want in the
output. When you execute the merge to a new document, that document will
contain a row of data in a table for each record in the data source. If you
don't want the cell borders to appear, use Ctrl+Alt+u to remove them.

I would very much like to use the mail-merge function in Word to create a
nice looking list. What is the simplest way of doing this?

Kind regards,
