• The mail merge feature of MS Word allows us to create labels, envelopes, and letters with personalized input.
• For merging, we require two documents, the main document with the text that identifies where the main data is to be inserted and a data source document which contains the variable information to be inserted.

As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, Microsoft Word does not have a built-in feature called “Word Mailing.” However, Microsoft Word does offer several features related to mailings and document distribution. These features are part of the “Mailings” tab in the Word ribbon. Here are some notable features within the Mailings tab:

1. Mail Merge: This feature allows you to create personalized documents, such as letters, envelopes, labels, or emails, by merging a main document with a data source (e.g., Excel spreadsheet, Outlook contacts) to generate multiple copies with customized information.
2. Envelopes and Labels: Word provides tools for creating and printing envelopes and labels. You can specify recipient addresses and customize the formatting options for envelopes and labels.
3. Email Merge: With this feature, you can send personalized emails to a group of recipients using your Outlook contacts or other data sources. Word merges the email content with recipient-specific information from your data source.
4. Directory: Word can generate a directory or catalog based on a data source, such as an Excel spreadsheet. This feature allows you to create a list or table containing information from your data source.
5. Mailings Ribbon: The Mailings tab also includes various tools and options to work with mailing-related tasks. You can insert placeholders for merge fields, preview the results, edit recipient lists, start the merge process, and manage the merge recipients.

It’s worth noting that Microsoft Word is constantly evolving, and new features may have been introduced since my knowledge cutoff. To stay up to date with the latest features, I recommend checking Microsoft’s official documentation or the Word application itself for the most recent information.
