Automation

Is it possible to populate a Word document from either an XML file or Access
database. My reason for asking is I have the task of manually inputing names
of clients onto thank you cards and rather than have to copy paste each
individual name onto one of the thank you cards, I'd rather populate the 8
card per document with the different client names.

I also have to generate a final certificate for each client and its so time
consuming, I'm just curious what is my best way to accomplish this, thank you.

You want to google, or browse the helpfile, for the term: "mail merge"
