Can anyone suggest a good tutorial source for merging? I work in a probate
law office and need to find out how to set up court forms for estates where
names, addresses, dates of birth and death, and other info. can be merged
from an Excel database (not yet set up) into the forms. We have taken Word
beginning, intermediate and advanced classes but even the advanced course
just barely touched on merge and it seemed to be geared towards letters.

Thanks.
