Default Mail merge inception

Hello,
I need to find a way to implemetn a mail merge into mail merge:
I issue up to 30 orders for exploitation of company cars a day and I want to automate the process.
The problem is, that the form I'm trying to achieve is the following.

"Order


for exploitation of vehicle, property of <<company>>, Technical ID <<Tech ID>>, <<model>>, <<type>>

The following employees:
1. <<Employee name 1>>, Car license number <<Car license number1>>, Address <<Address1>>, etc..
2. <<Employee name 2>>, Car license number <<Car license number2>>, Address <<Address1>>, etc..
...
n. <<Employee name n>>, Car license number <<Car license numbern>>, Address <<Addressn>>, etc..

should drive the vehicle with the care of the good husband,
etc. etc.
Declare that they are familiar with the consumption rates, as it follows:
-Main consumption rate <<main consumption rate>>
-Country consumption rate <<country consumtion rate>>
etc. etc."

I have both car attributes (m) and employee attributes (n), for each car I can have a different number of employees.
Can somebody help me find a way to create it as a mail merge form, and help me find a way to represent the initial excel data?

Thank you!

You can use Word's Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge facility for this (the terminology depends on the Word version). To see how to do so with any mailmerge data source supported by Word, check out my Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial, in the 'Sticky' thread at the top of this forum:
Microsoft Word Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial
The tutorial covers everything from list creation to the insertion & calculation of values in multi-record tables in letters. Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.

For some recent, worked examples, see the attachment to the posts at:

Alternatively, you may want to try a Many-to-One Mail Merge add-in from either:
• Graham Mayor at: Merge Many To One
• Doug Robbins' Windows Live SkyDrive page at: Microsoft OneDrive - Access files anywhere. Create docs with free Office Online.
