how do i perform mail merge in access?

Hi Kelly, thank you for the post, welcome to the forum, in answer to your question on performing a mail merge in Access, consider first the data and ensure that your table or query is going to provide the correct information, if you are comfortable and wish to use the table/query proceed as follows.
In Microsoft Word create your letter/document which you wish to send to multiple addressees, invoke the Mail Merge wizard, following the steps in the wizard to undertake a mail merge; when you come to the point to insert the database, navigate to your Access database and select the table/query you wish to use, insert the fields as required and Word will extract the data. I hope that helps, best regards Pete.
