An example...You want to send a letter to 300 employees, but you don't want to type the letter 300 times. You would then have a document that contains the letter, with placeholders for fields that contain the employee's name, address, etc. You then have a second document that contains all the employee data. Mail merge will merge the two documents and create 300 letters...one for each employee, putting the correct information in each field. You need Microsoft Office to do this, and Office Help will walk you through the steps.
