Microsoft Word Mail Merge Database

[Pruncey]

Hello,
I have about 20 different customer mail merge databases, that I'd like to
consolidate into one large database. Is there an easy way to do this,
without having to retype all of the information?
Thanks for your help!

How easy this will be rather depends on what format the databases are in and
whether they have the same numbers of fields. One approach would be to
import them into an Outlook contacts list, which provides mapping facilities
to ensure your fields match Outlook's. There are probably other approaches
depending on the nature of the data

They are in an .mdb format. Yes they do all have the same exact fields.
