Q 14.Which two documents are essential for mail merge?

Ans:-For a mail merge, you'll need two key documents:

1. **Main Document**: This is the document that contains the

template for your letter, email, labels, etc. It includes the fixed
text that remains the same in all merged documents, along with
placeholders for the variable data.

2. **Data Source**: This is the document or file containing the

variable data that will be inserted into the main document.
Common formats for data sources include Excel spreadsheets,
databases, or other structured data files (like CSVs). The data
source includes records with fields (like names, addresses, etc.)
that correspond to the placeholders in the main document.

When you perform a mail merge, the placeholders in the main

document are replaced with the actual data from the data source,
creating individualized documents for each record in the data
source.
