how do i set up a mail merge document

[skunk]

I cannot setup a mail merge using word 2003, i have a data file in excel
name, last name, address, city, prov, post code.
I have a document open in word in which I inserted fields that match the
excel database. No matter what I do, it doesn't work. Mail merge help has
about 10 steps too many. Is there a quirk in Word 2003?

Best thing is to turn on the Mailmerge Toolbar (View>Toolbars) and then work
with that. It gives you all that you need.

Of take a look at the "Getting back older interfaces" item under the "Mail
merge in Word 2002/2003" section of fellow MVP Cindy Meister's website at:
