I want to convert my mail merge data to an access file to use with another
program. How do I do this? It is in Windows XP.

Where is the data now?

You can use a Directory type mail merge to get the data into the form of a
table in a Word document which you can copy and then paste into Excel and
then you can copy it from Excel and Paste it into an Access database.

It took a little time to figure it out and configure the tables correctly,
but it worked great!!
