saved main document in mail merge, how do I extract the date file.

[Melynda Paul]

I created a mail merge main document and data source. I saved it and now the
data source that I created in that document is only accessable in that
document. Is there a way that I can extract the data source and make it a
file on its own so that I can use it for other things?

Version of Word? Steps used to create the data source? Were you prompted to save
the data source, and if yes, what path and name did you use?
