Take control of the powerful mail merge capabilities of OpenOffice.org™ 2 software with these "step-by-step" instructional movies. You'll learn how to use Writer and Calc in combination to create letters that are individualized for each recipient. You'll also learn how to create and print individual address labels to go with the letters. The example used is that of a teacher's letter home to parents, but the same methods demonstrated here can be applied to many business and personal tasks as well.
