If so, all you need do is:
1. Make a copy of the mailmerge main document;
2. Replace all the content in the copy with the content you require from your assembled document; then
3. Insert the relevant mergefields wherever you want to data to appear.
From then on, it's just a matter of opening the document and mail-merging the records you're interested in.
