How to do mail merge letters and labels in Office 2007

I got a mail on this today, so thought I had better drop a quick note.  The Office 2007 web site has a great search system that got me an answer straight away that includes screen shots to make it real simple. (I searched on the site for mail merge and then picked Word 2007 from the product picker).  Please note that you can also e-mail merge to result in a number of e-mails being sent (perhaps with a newsletter) and that if you use publisher then you can also do things like put in place web links that have a unique identifier so you can tell who clicked on them.

The answers can be found at:

Hi David

I have been used to Microsoft Office 2002 and windows XP, and now at work I have MS Office 2007 and Vista.

I often use excel and word to mail merge, eg doing invoicing, and now I cannot make it work.  Dates get reversed to the American version, and numbers that are formatted as currency do not stay in the correct format.  I have looked at your link on mail merge but am still very confused.  It used to be so simple, and now seems to be far mor complicated.  Can you help?

Cheers

Jane

I figured out how to merge my data and envelopes, but now a partial address continues to come up when I try to print a single envelope without mail merge. How can I get rid of this address?

Hi,

How are you creating the list - which version of Office and can you give me a step by step - which application you use and what you do?

Thanks

David
