Mail Merge

Import the txt file to Excel and then use the directions here:

Yes. If I understand correctly, you want to be able to cut the three sections apart and insert one section into each envelope. So, what you have here is essentially a very large "mailing label".

On the Word menubar,
click on Tools
then Envelopes and Labels
then the Options button
then the New Label button
and create a custom "label" that has dimensions such that only three fit on a sheet of paper.

This should do what you want. Good luck.

I'm not sure if you've got your answer yet, but you will need to have a "Next Record" field in front of the 2nd and 3rd sets of merge fields. See this article, please:

Whenever you want multiple records on a page, you must have Next Record in front of the 2nd and subsequent records.

I hope this helps!

Hi,

The answers above are close. However, still use mail-merge but select labels. Choose indeed a label type [or make one yourself as a new one] that will give you 3 sections on one piece of paper. It may be handy to use the margins of the label sheet to fit to your normal printer margins. Save that new label sheet for future use. Just proceed and the next record field will be added automatically.
It may look a little bit clumsy to add text and fields to the label box. In there you can edit with the right mouse button. Else close the merge window before the final step. You will see the master document with the 3 section as cells in a table. You can edit that and resume the mail-merge afterwards.
Always merge to a new document first, check it and only once it is OK start printing that new document.
Just one other tip. Make sure to have a hard return at the end of your text, else the last line may look a little bit unusual.
Good Luck.

I gather you are using Word XP/2003. Activate the mail merge toolbar and on the toolbar is an icon that says: Propogate labels. Click this to solve your problemo.
