Hello all. I'm trying to do mailmerge with my list in microsoft excel. I
found the instruction from msword help and followed it. But when i get to
this point this instruction below about browsing my file that's where my
problem exist.

"If you have a Microsoft Office Excel worksheet or a Microsoft Office Access
database that contains your customer information, click Use an existing list,
and then click Browse to locate the file."

After attaching my file i can see the list of my recepients then i sellect
all and click ok. Then the next step is to preview my envelop this is my
problem my envelop is empty. I can add additional information from the ms
word option but the name and addresses of all my recipients is not printed.

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks guys!

an overview
