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:
https://www.msofficeforums.com/mail-...-tutorial.html or: http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip 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. The process using Word's built-in functionality is somewhat complex. However, since the tutorial document includes working field codes for all of its examples, most of the hard work has already been done for you - you should be able to do little more than copy/paste the relevant field codes into your own mailmerge main document, substitute/insert your own field names and adjust the formatting to get the results you desire. Another option would be to use a DATABASE field in a normal ‘email’ mailmerge main document and a macro to drive the process. An outline of this approach can be found at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/o...1-1996c14dca5d Conversely, if you're using a relational database or, Excel workbook with a separate table with just a single instance of each of the grouping criteria, a DATABASE field in a normal email’ mailmerge main document could be used without the need for a macro. An outline of this approach can be found at: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...f-8642e46fa103 For some working examples, see: https://www.msofficeforums.com/mail-...-multiple.html https://www.excelforum.com/excel-gen...ml#post5110813 Alternatively, you may want to try one of the Many-to-One Mail Merge add-ins, from: Graham Mayor at http://www.gmayor.com/ManyToOne.htm; or Doug Robbins at https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=5AEDC...43615E886B!566
