In that case the simplest thing to do is to create a Word directory merge
with one row containing all the fields in the merge data source (or at
least, all the fields that you actually need). You can separate the merge
field codes by tabs, or you can create a table with a single row and as many
columns as you need and put each merge field in a separate cell. If you do
that, ensure that you do not have any paragraph marks after the table other
than the one Word forces you to have.

Then do the merge, add an extra row at the beginning containing the mail
merge field names, and save the document, and you have a data source which
anyone with a sufficiently up-to-date version of Word can use.

If you do this a lot, keep a copy of the header row in a separate Word
document and use Inseret|File to insert it.
