After creating the main document and data source, the third step is to merge the main document with the data
source. For this, invoke the Mail Merge Helper again and choose the ‘Merge’ button. The following dialog box will
appear
Select ‘New Document’ from the ‘Merge To’ drop-down list and click on ‘Merge’ button. The form letters aregenerated and stored in the document which may be previewed for final adjustment in the main document, before
printing the for letters.
13.6 MERGE PRINTING
You can directly print the Form Letters without previewing them. Select the Printer option, then the form letters are
directly printed on the printer.
13.7 CONDITIONAL MERGING
You can also mail merge the document with a condition. There are two options available in the Merge dialog box as
shown in the Fig. 13.7, i.e., ‘Merge’ and ‘Query Options’ options. Using Query Option’ you can define the selection
criteria so that at the time of merging only those records are selected which meet the defined selection criteria.
I am looking for a way to do an e-mail merge using Outlook 2011 (or even Entourage 2008) on the Mac. It is
extremely easy to do this through the Windows version of Outlook, but I can’t seem to make heads or tails of how to
do it (easily) through Outlook 2011 on the Mac. Any ideas?
The first step to creating a successful form-letter is understanding that Outlook has nothing to do with designing the
thing. Rather, you create mail merge documents within Microsoft Word. And you do it this way in Word 2011.
Choose Tools -> Mail Merge Manager. A small Mail Merge Manager window will appear. This window contains
six steps, all of which you march through in order to create your document.
To begin, create a new blank document. Click Create New in the first step and you’ll see that you have th e option tocreate a form letter, label, envelope, or catalog. For our purposes we’ll choose Form Letters.
In the second step click on Get List and choose the source for the data that will be inserted into your form letter —
names, addresses, and phone numbers, for example. Your options include New Data Source, Open Data Source,
Office Address Book (the one found in Outlook), Apple Address Book (Apple’s Address Book application), and
FileMaker Pro. For our purposes, choose Apple Address Book.
Now start constructing your form letter, leaving spaces where you want to merge your data. Return to the Mail
Merge Manager window and click the third step. Here you’ll find common data types including first name, last
name, address, phone number, and e-mail address. Drag the appropriate data types to their proper place in your form
letter.
In step four you determine which of your recipients are merged into the letter. Click Options and a Query Optionswindow appears. In this specific case you choose groups of Address Book recipients. Once you’ve selected the
groups you want to include, click OK.
If you like, you can preview your form letter to make sure it’s constructed properly. You do this in step five by
clicking on the View Merged Data icon and clicking the right or left arrow buttons to move through the forms. As
you click, new records are injected into your document.
Finally, in step six you produce your merged e-mail messages. You have three options: Merge to Printer, Merge to
New Document, and Generate E-mail Message. That last option is the one you want. Click it and in the Mail
Recipient window that appears enter a subject for your message in the Subject field and click Mail Merge to Outbox.
Word should now generate customized versions of your message and place them in Outlook’s Outbox. If it doesn’t,
open Apple’s Mail, choose Preferences, click the General tab, and ensure that Microsoft Outlook is configured as
