The mailmerge tool requires an address list, which is something I don't

In lotus wordpro - which is next to pure perfection - you have "click
here boxes", which you place strategically in the places you need to
type your data. They typically say ">click here to enter the date<"
the when you do, it jumps to the next box. All my fax heders and
letterheads have them.
Also built in to Lotus Wordpro is an internal mini mail merge simply
by typing "<a new field name>" wherever you need the data , it will
save all your contact details as you go (mail merge on the fly).
I have to say as yet I have not seen either of these 2 facilities in
LO, however, I would have thought "click here boxes" were universal
and I am just not looking hard enough.
Thank you for bottom-posting :)
Hm, that sounds like a nice feature; it's similar to what I'm doing,
just without the fields. It's a little more complicated, though, since
some of the data I'm entering is repeated at two places (and I enter it
twice manually). There would have to be fields that are pointers to
other fields already filled in --- perhaps Lotus Wordpro has something
like that as well.

Please accept my apologies for my last posting to you.
It was on top and I see you really like bottom postings, I will try not
to do it again
