RE: excel to word mail merge

Hello Kristina,

Hope you enjoyed your Microsoft Excel courses with Best STL.

Thank you for your question regarding using mail merge with an Excel database.

First open your Word document and go to the Mailings ribbon. Make space available for the address to go in and click Start Mail Merge followed by Step-by Step Mail Merge Wizard. Go through the steps and when arriving at step 3 where you are asked to select the recipients choose, if necessary, 'Use an Exisitng List' and click the browse button. Locate your
Excel file and select the sheet which contains your address list. Continue to follow the steps until the merge is ready for printing.

Have fun with it!


I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Rodney

Excel tip:

Quickly create a list of numbers

The fill handle in Excel has many uses. If a number is typed into a cell and then the fill handle is used, the number will be copied from one cell to the next.

If you wish to create a list of numbers that increment by one at a time, hold down Ctrl in conjunction with using the fill handle - this should give you a series of numbers (e.g. 1, 2, 3 etc) rather than copying a single number.
