merge toolbar

[merge confussion]

New to Word XP. How do you activate the buttons on the merge toolbar. I
have a word doc. which i have to insert multiple merge fields. But the icons
on the merge toolbar don't do anything when clicked.

You must first use the button on the left hand end of the toolbar to select
the type of mailmerge that you wish to perform and then use the second
button to attach the datasource. Then the balance of the buttons will
become enabled.
