Mail Merge and then email
I have a letter that I want to email out to a group of 50-100 clients but I
want it to be personal with their name in the letter. Is there a way to do a mail merge with a contact group from outlook and then email each letter for the individual person? I know how to do a mail merge but that would be for printing and mailing. I know I could take the time and email each letter individually but that would take a while. |

See the "Individual Merge Letters" item on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website
at: http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm If you are using Word XP or later, the "Add-in to Merge Letters to Separate Files" that I have written and that can be downloaded from that site will allow you to create each letter as a separate file with a filename taken from a field in the data source with a minimum of fuss. Either way, that will allow you to create a personalised letter for each of your clients. Then you could use the method described in the article "Mail Merge to E-mail with Attachments" at: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MailMerge/...ttachments.htm to use mailmerge to send an email to each client attached to which would be the letter that was personalised for them. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Cali Tech" wrote in message ...
