Mail merge to subsequent new documents.

[sdbrennan]

mail merging data from Access to word master document. 35
records, hence 35 seperate sheets in ONE word document.

How can I get each record to merge to a new document, thus
having 35 seperate files of the merged data.

Dim Letters As Integer, Counter As Integer

Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdStory
Counter = 1
While Counter < Letters
DocName = "Myletter" & LTrim$(Str$(Counter))

Documents.Add
Selection.Paste
