Question about Mail Merge and seperating documents 1

I am doing a mail merge and merging multiple addresses into one document to create customized documents. At the end of the mail merge, I am left with one master Word document - a list of all the customized documents. I need to extract these individual documents and save them each as individual Word documents. The only way I can think to do this is to take the master document, delete all but one individual document and then save that one document. I would have to do this over and over in order to save each document individually. Is there an easier way to do this?
 




What determines the subset of addresses in an individual document?

Hi,
In Word 2003, using the Mail Merge task pane, the last step lets you perform the separation of documents by selecting "Edit individual letters". Word puts hard copies (without field codes) in a separate document.

HTH,

Hey Blue,

After all these years, I neve knew there was a setting for that.

Thanx!
