how to add name in mail merge

[Tom B]

I just swithched to Publisher 2003, in Publisher 2000 I could edit and add
names to mail merge data files in Publisher. In Publisher 2003 i can only
edit the file and not add new names, how do you add new names in publisher
2003 to mail merge data files?

Tools, edit address list, browse to your data. If it is a Publisher list the file
should open.
Publisher's data is in reality an Access file. Do you have Access?

I do not have Access, the area you sent me to shows the file that I want to
access but it opens with squares and no text, the file prints okay just can't
add names. May have to retye the list in the Publisher 2003 program and save
it in data sources folder?

Publisher automatically saves the list in the "data folder." Do you have Excel or
Works? Any type of database program will open the file.
