combining lists in mail merge
Another way is to create a Directory merge into a single row table of all
the matching fields from the two data files. Merge each data file using the same source document to a new document. Copy and paste one of the new documents into the other. Sort the table on whichever column seems appropriate. Add a title row to the table and use the saved documnent with this table as a data source. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org visiondoc wrote: I have two recipient lists created in mail merge by two different staff members They are in the shared documents folder How do I merge or combine these two lists into one so that I can use it for a mailing? |
