Simultaneous use of MS Word and Excel 2007

I work for a certain non-profit organization and I have been given the task of writing a letter using MS Word 2007. This is not an ordinary letter as it will be configured to bear the names and addresses of around a thousand donors to our organization.

Since I have a spreadsheet containing all these details in Excel 2007, I am wondering if there is some way to print out a letter containing this info in Word at the same time avoiding copy pasting the details on the spreadsheet for each letter as this would take an eternity.

I am counting on your help.

You have to use mail merge to create and print letters and other documents.Mail merge process: Set up the main document>Connect the document to a data source>Refine the list of recipients or items.>Add placeholders, called mail merge fields, to the document.>Preview and complete the merge.

1.Set up the mail merge: Please start Word>Click Start Mail Merge,from the Mailings tab, in the Start Mail Merge group>Click Letters.

2.Connect the document to a data source:Choose a data file,so again click Select Recipients,from the Mailings tab, in the Start Mail Merge group>Select Recipients.Then connect your excel file or outlook contacts.

3.Refine the list of recipients or items: Again click Edit Recipient List,from the Mailings tab, in the Start Mail Merge group and complete process.
