Step 1: Prepare data in Excel for mail merge The most important step in the mail merge process is to set up and prepare your data. You'll use your Excel spreadsheet as the data source for the recipient list. Here are some tips to prepare your data for a mail merge. Make sure: Column names in your spreadsheet match the field names you want to insert in your mail merge. For example, to address readers by their first name in your document, you'll need separate columns for first and last names. All data to be merged is present in the first sheet of your spreadsheet. Data entries with percentages, currencies, and postal codes are correctly formatted in the spreadsheet so that Word can properly read their values. The Excel spreadsheet to be used in the mail merge is stored on your local machine. Changes or additions to your spreadsheet are completed before it's connected to your mail merge document in Word. More information at https://support.office.com/en-US/article/Prepare-your-Excel-data-source-for-mail-merge-in-Word-990e6516-49bc-4a43-aecc-acd027d92a00

Step 2: Start the mail merge In Word, choose File > New > Blank document. On the Mailings tab, in the Start Mail merge group, choose Start Mail Merge, and then choose the kind of merge you want to run.

Step 3: Selecting the source Choose Select Recipients > Use an Existing List.

Mail merge recipients (optional) In the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box, clear the check box next to the name of any person who you don't want to receive your mailing. NOTE: You also can sort or filter the list to make it easier to find names and addresses. For more information about sorting and filtering items, see Sort and filter the data for a mail merge.

Step 4: insert a merge field You can insert one or more mail merge fields that pull the information from your spreadsheet into your document. To insert an address block for an envelope, a label, an email message, or a letter On the Mailings tab, in the Write & Insert Fields group, choose Address Block.

Insert address block In the Insert Address Block dialog box, choose a format for the recipient's name as it will appear on the envelope. Choose OK Choose File > Save.

To insert a greeting line (optional) In the Insert Greeting Line dialog box, do the following: Under Greeting line format, change the salutation if necessary by choosing the greeting (Dear is the default), the format for the recipient name, and the ending punctuation (a comma is the default). Under Greeting line for invalid recipient names, choose an option in the salutation list. Choose OK. Choose File > Save.

insert Data from the Spreadsheet To insert data from your spreadsheet in a letter On the Mailings tab, in the Write & Insert Fields group, choose Insert Merge Field. In the Insert Merge Field dialog box, under Fields, choose a field name (column name in your spreadsheet), and then choose Insert. Repeat step 2 as needed, and choose Close when done. Choose File > Save.

Step 5: Preview and finish the mail merge After you insert the merge fields you want, preview the results to confirm that the content is okay. and then you're ready to complete the merge process. On the Mailings tab, choose Preview Results
