Learn about Word's Mail Merge Feature
Have you ever been baffled by Word's Mail Merge feature? Did
you know that you can create sophisticated data source documents
and use Mail Merge to extract the data? You can also use Mail
Merge to create envelopes or labels from your Access data
– it's much easier than creating a new Access output
report. Learn how to enter new data using the Data Entry Form,
or update the data source table directly. All this and more
will be addressed in the Mail Merge class scheduled for Tuesday,
January 21, from 8:30 to 11 AM. To enroll, go to http://www.scripps.edu/rc/training/dapps_signup.html.
