turning tables into labels, possible?
Well, you really don't want to merge them for a data source. Leaving them in
separate fields allows you to sort by last name.

The thing is, first name and last name are in two separate columns. when
i
combine them, the first name is on top, and the last name is on bottom,
separated by a paragraph mark. How do i merge the cells so the first and
last names are side by side?

someone sent me a mailing list as a table that has over 100 names on
there.
can i just convert the table into a mailing label format and print, so
i
wont
have to start a new contact list in access and retype all that info
again?
the table has columns for: first name, last name, address, city, state,
zip.
can i even do a mail merge? i want simple. i dont care how it's done.
i
want a simple mail out without having to retype all of this. it's in
microsoft word 2007. thanks a bunch
