Default How do I set up an ask field in a merge document?

We recently upgraded to Office 2003 SP2.

My document will be sent via certified mail, and within the document, I need
to state the certified mail receipt number for both the addresse and for
anyone else receiving a copy (a unique number for every recipient of the
letter). I am trying to merge my main document with about 16 data records,
and for each letter that prints there will be at least two recipients (the
addressee and the cc:'d), so I need to enter 32 different certified mail
receipt numbers that will print out on the 16 finished letters I will have
once I complete the mail merge.

Thanks in advance for any help I can get with this matter!

So, you will have two Certified mail numbers for each document.
Simplest way is to put both in the same document.
You could duplicate your document, except for the Certified number and put
in two Ask fields, I suppose.
