MS Word Macro Question (maybe)

[Easy Mac]

I was wondering if anyone here knows how to do a macro (or something similar) in Word in which I can have a list of addresses in one file print in a specific place in another document.

To clarify, I would like to print cover letters for my resume. However, I do not want to have to type each address to each company 20 times, and have to print All 20 individually. Is there a macro or something I could do that would let me just put the addresses in a file (say as a list in excel or something) and then import them into the file so that it prints one copy of each address.

Something like:
John Doe
Company X
Main Street, USA ZIPCODE

Cover Letter Body

Sincerely,
Easy Mac

Thanks if anyone can offer some help.

You should be able to do that using a Mail Merge, which is 1000x easier than trying to write a macro.

If you are at all familiar with .csv files and basic database concepts, the Word help file should be plenty of info to get you going. If you're not, you'll probably need more of a walkthrough, but I'd start by looking at the help file.

Also, try googling any/all of microsoft word mail merge help tutorial ... I'd bet there are some decent tutorials out there somewhere.
