I have a Word doc that looks like this:
<<PracticeName>>
<<PracticeAddress>>
<<PracticeCitystate>>
<<PatientName>>
<<PatientAddress>>
And a .xls that looks like this:
PracticeName PracticeAddress PracticeCitystate PatientName PatientAddress
Acme Diagnostics 101 Apian Road Cleveland, OH 44115 George Bush 111 Broad Way
I have Word 2003 and I:
Open Word & blank doc
ToolsLetters&MailingsMailMerge
Letters is checkedNext
Check "Start from existing," and
select my aforementioned doc, openNext
Check "Use an existing list," and
open my aforementioned xls, open, use
defaults Next
Do nothing at "write your letter" Next
OK, I'm at preview, yet my document still looks exactly as shown above. What am I doing wrong?
