From: janey on 12 Mar 2010 06:59 Can you tell me how I can view the Mail Merge toolbar in Word 2007, please? In earlier versions, I could just view the toolbar rather than going through the wizard to do mail merge but can't find the same thing now. TIA
From: Graham Mayor on 12 Mar 2010 07:45 There is no mail merge toolbar in Word 2007. You can do much the same from the Mailings tab - see http://www.gmayor.com/merge_labels_with_word_2007.htm -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> "janey" <janey(a)newsgroup.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:83B21026-DB04-45DE-AFFF-92AC8F9A6854(a)microsoft.com... > Can you tell me how I can view the Mail Merge toolbar in Word 2007, > please? > > In earlier versions, I could just view the toolbar rather than going > through the wizard to do mail merge but can't find the same thing now. > > TIA
From: Suzanne S. Barnhill on 12 Mar 2010 08:58 As Graham has indicated, the Mailings tab contains most of the same buttons as the Mail Merge toolbar, though some of them have different names. If you experiment, however, I think you'll find you can arrive at the same result. The button to start with is the Start Mail Merge button, which is the equivalent of the "Main document setup" button on the MM toolbar. To connect to your data source, click Select Recipients and choose Use Existing List. One of the biggest improvements is that the Insert Merge Field button offers you a menu instead of the clunky dialog that is the default on the MM toolbar. Edit Recipient List is the equivalent of Mail Merge Recipients on the MM toolbar. Under Finish & Merge, Edit Individual Documents is the equivalent of Merge to New Document. Bottom line: the procedure is slightly different, but the process is essentially the same. -- Suzanne S.
