Mail Merge in Ms-Word2007

• 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.

• You use mail merge when you want to create a set of documents that are essentially the same but where each document contains unique elements. For example, in a letter that announces a new product, your company logo and the text about the product will appear in each letter, and the address and greeting line will be different in each letter.

• (E)Mail merge often refers to combining a list or database of email addresses (sometimes names and other data too) with a mass (batch) emailing. For example, a company can email some or all the customers in their database with a similar message and include the name of each customer in the greeting.
