Default Creating a form in Word and using Mail Merge to Complete

I would suggest a roll-your-own equivalent to mail merge, using a template
with Docvariable fields and using VBA to iterate through the datasource,
creating a new document from the template for each record and using the data
from each record to set the values of the document variables, updating he
fields in the document so that the values are displayed in the Docvariable
fields and then printing out the required number of copies of the document
for the current record by getting hold of that number fom a field in the
data source.

Hope this helps.

I am new to Office and would like to know if it is possible to create a
printable form (coupon) in Word that can be populated with customer name
and
numbering system? How do I specify that I want to print X number of
coupons
for the same customer?
