email

I am trying to see if there is a way to do email mail merges using an excel
database. The DB contains the first, last, title, company and email address.
Can any one help?

Thanks!

Word has the ability to execute a merge to email. Use a Letter type mail
merge main document and then select the data source, insert the merge fields
and the text that you want in the letter into that document and then when
you execute the merge, select email as the destination. When you do that, a
dialog box will open asking you to select the field that contains the email
addresses and allows you to insert the text for the subject of the messages.
