How do I insert my addresses onto your forms?

by Raki Wright | Last Updated March 9, 2010

Doing a mail merge of your address list is the best way to do this.  According to wikipedia.org, mail merge is a software function describing the production of multiple (and potentially large numbers of) documents from a single template form and a structured data source. This helps to create personalized letters and pre-addressed envelopes or mailing labels for mass mailings from a database mailing list of names and addresses.

We encourage you to use the “Mail Merge Wizard.”  Follow the instructions based on the program you’re using.

• Word 2000/20003 – under Tools, Mail Merge;

• Word 2007 – under Mailings, Start Mail Merge;

• Publisher 2000/2003 – under Mail Merge;

• Publisher 2007 – under Tools, Mailing and Catalogs, Mail Merge

Steps to complete a mail merge:

Step 1: Choose a document type and main document

Step 2: Connect to a data file (spreadsheet or database) and select records

Step 3: Add fields to the main document

Step 4: Preview the merge and then complete it
