want them in more readily
The way I approach this is to "mail merge" the information into a template
document. "Mail merge" is missnamed.. it's really a data query.
This isn't a process that can be well-described in a mail message in
this thread. You'll need to watch videos about it or get a book that covers
it.
But I
I suggest you use the concatenate command, perhaps multiple
