Default Exporting spreadsheet data

I have a spreadsheet that was made to list individuals in an organization.
The columns include their names first and last, adresses, phones numbers,
etc. Now we need to produce invoices for each name in the list and was
wondering if there is some way to automate the process of exporting the info
into an invoice for mailing. Hope this has provided enough info to obtain an
answer.
Thanks

A starting point would be to Add a Column at the beginning of the list,
assign a sequential number to the individuals, i.e. like an account
number. Insert a new worksheet. Design your invoice on this sheet.
Add a spot on the invoice for the account number. Use vlookups on the
form to place the names, addresses, etc.

Depending on how many records you have in your database, this is where
my help wanes. You can manually substitute the account numbers on the
invoice form and then print. Someone who knows how to write a macro
can help maybe to loop through your listing to copy the account number
from the listing to the form and print the invoice and then move to the
next account number. Hope that starts the thought process for you.

My apologies, a simpler non macro solution would be to use Word, if you
have that. Create the invoice in Word using merge fields from the
Excel listing. This is a much simpler method.
