A while back, our office was upgraded to Microsoft Office 2003. After having
used it for a length of time now, I really only have one complaint.

The Mail Merge process in Word 2003 is by far the WORST process I have ever
had to use. Whether you are merging letters, labels, envelopes or otherwise,
it is a very inefficient, inconvenient process to work with. I'm sure at the
time, Microsoft felt they must be improving the Merge process by making the
changes they did; however, in no way did it make my job easier.

While I can use the Mail Merge process, it is very frustrating and if I had
another option, I would use it instead.

Im sure Microsoft has no intention of going back to the way it was before
Microsoft Office 2003 so I won't get into specifics about what is wrong with
the 2003 version. I really don't have time to get into detail about it
anyway as I have already wasted enough time using the Mail Merge today and
also writing this e-mail to voice my frustration.
