merging HR list with timesheet(s)

[gary G.]

We are using Word 2002 and Exel 2002. We would like to be
able to take the employee information such as name
address, phone, title, etc., that is stored a an excell
spread sheet and put it into a timesheet that is a word
document. We would like to print up individualized
timesheets for each person.

How can we do this? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Gary,

Starting with your timesheet document, turn on the mailmerge toolbar (View
Toolbars) and using the first button on the left, select "Letters" as the
main document type to create. Then using the second button from the left,
navigate to and open the Excel spreadsheet that you want to use as the data
source. Then using the sixth button from the left, insert the mergefields
into the appropriate places in the main document. Then execute the merge to
the appropriate destinate by using the buttons at the right hand end of the
toolbar.

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps
