Learning Outcomes

  • Mail merge: Three methods of Mail Merge, which are covered in more detail in this document, are:
    • RTF Method: The user creates a Rich Text Format (RTF) Template. This is a Microsoft Word document that is saved as an RTF, which includes merge fields compatible with SAMS G2 data. The template is then uploaded to SAMS G2.
    • CSV Method: The user generates a Comma Separated Value - Comma Delimited (CSV) export file from SAMS G2 which is then used as a data source in the Microsoft Word Mail Merge function.

    • Email Method: The user creates an email message that is formatted with the same text and graphics. Specific sections of the email message may vary by containing merge fields to personalise the email. Using the email Mail Merge facility makes each recipient of the email the sole recipient.
