Maybe I'm missing something, but Mail Merge in Word 2003 is terrible. I work
with a large address list and I don't want to have to check certain boxes
each time I want to send a form letter and the corresponding envelopes. In
Word 2000, I used to create a heading YorN in my data file and in the query
options box I would mark that if there was a Y in that column, use that
record. I didn't have to recheck the box for an envelope because my Y was
already there. I hope I am missing something and that someone will be able
to tell me an easier way of mail merge in Word 2003. Thanks.

I couldn't agree more - see my new post.
Using the wizard is equally frustrating
