Hello
I am looking for some help on how to split a Word mail merge document into separate files that can be saved under individual names. The merged data comes from an Excel spreadsheet which has a number of tabs and all the merge data is in one of the tabs.
There are 20 separate documents that need to be created.
Ideally, I would like to be able to do this directly from the mail merge document (as opposed to after creating the full document via the 'Finish & Merge' button) and save each document under a unique file name. But doing it from the 'Finish & Merge' file would also be fine. At the moment, I have to 'Finish & Merge', then delete all the documents except one, and then save it with the name I want. Then re-open the 'Finish & Merge' document, and repeat until I have created the 20 individually named documents. That's very tedious!
Is there a way of automating this?
Thanks
Stewart
