If I have understood correctly, it should be feasible with Excel and Word.
It can probably be done with Access. I would start with a small example with
a few sample records and see what happens.

In access, certainly.

In Word, probably, but I'm not quite clear how ALL the data is set up in Excel.
Is all the information that you want to appear in the letter in one table? Then
all you need to do is insert the appropriate columns in a mail merge document.

If that's not quite what you have, please be more specific. And we also need to
know the version of Word you're using.
