word letters and works db

[ME]

I use a word template to write letters, and i have a works db with adresses
etc.

I can do a mail merge for a mailing, that is no problem.

But how can I easily select 1 adres from the works db in my letter?
I do not want to use a query in the mail merge, i think that takes much
time, but more important, my automatic reference number dissapears when
using the mail merge.

thanks in advance

I think you can use the Letter Wizard to create a letter for one name in
the database. Most likely the database needs to be imported into Outlook
because the Letter Wizard looks for the Outlook contacts as a list of
name and addresses it can search. This option gives you the ability to
create a letter for one person or multiple people without having to do a
mail merge.
