acani1711,
Here's a way from John Walkenbach just using excel, although I think using
word to do the merge would be better

You can also use word mail merge an Excel as the data source

For help on this have a look here

Hi Paul,
The last reference is for creating an individual
letter or envelope and specifically states that you would look
in Word's help for information on Mail Merge. So if you are
keeping track of mail merge tutorials you might want to revise wording
in future.
