Why use mail merge?
Using mail merge, you can create: A set of labels or envelopes-While the return
address is the same on all the labels in your “merge” or envelopes, the destination address is unique to each envelope or label.
A set of form letters-Basic content is the same in all the letters, but the individual letter contains information that is specific to the recipient (e.g. name, address, or other pieces of exclusive data).
