Mail Merge Tutorial

Word displays a Microsoft Access window for you to select the exact table or query that has the names & addresses that you want to merge into lables.


MS Word will inform you that it needs to set up the document. Click on the button that says Set Up Main Document.


In the Label Options dialog box, select the type of printer and the type of labels you want to use. Then click OK.


Next the program will bring up a menu in which you can customize the layout of your labels. In the Create Labels dialog box, insert the merge fields for the address information. (Choose the fields you want placed on the label, separate the fields with a space and use the "Enter" key to go to the next line).
