entering merge fields into main document

[EF]

So far, this 2003 version is the worst. I am wondering is there a way to
enter mail merge fields into a main document without having to place the
cursor where the field goes, open the fields chooser, select the field, close
the chooser, move the cursor, open the chooser again, select the field, close
the chooser again, mover the cursor, open the chooser again...

You get the picture. Any help anyone can provide would be appreciated. We
just converted and the office help is singularly unhuelpful.

thanks

See http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_labels_with_word_xp.htm which should
put you back on track. And before you ask your next question - see also
http://www.gmayor.com/formatting_word_fields.htm
If you know the field names you can type them directly into the document by
pressing CTRL+F9 to create a field.
