Collaborating on Documents Word contains features that make it easy for several people to work on a document together. Rather than passing a hard copy of the document containing manual changes back and forth, you can have Word automatically track the changes, and then you can pass the document electronically. Track Changes By using the Track Changes tool, you can easily see what changes have been made to the existing document. This feature is very useful if you are collaborating with others, or wish to make suggestions that can be later accepted or rejected. Furthermore, you can quickly switch between different views to see the extent of the changes, or if you wish to view the original document in its entirety. If you wish to make changes to a document that you want to share with others, you must enable Track Changes first before making any changes to your document. 1. Click on the Review tab (See Figure 1). 2. In the Review tab, click on Track Changes (See Figure 1). Figure 1 – Track Changes Page 86 of 105 3. Word will now begin to track changes to your document (e.g. inserting text, deleting text, etc.). The Track Changes button will be shaded to indicate track changes has been activated. 4. To turn off Track Changes, click the Track Changes button. Note: Track Changes will remain on unless it is deactivated; even if you save your document. Be sure to turn off Track Changes if you don’t want others to track changes. If you want to prevent others from turning off Track Changes, see Locking Track Changes. Making Changes to Your Document with Track Changes Once Track Changes has been activated, Word will make note of all changes made to your document. To make changes to your document, simply edit the document as you normally would. The default settings for changes will appear as red lettering for insertions, and red lettering with a strikethrough for deletions. Figure 2 – Changes to the Document Leaving Comments You can leave notes in your document for others to read that ask for clarification, explain a revision, etc. When your review settings are set to Simple Markup, all comments will be hidden and areas that have had a comment added will display a speech bubble.

Page 96 of 105 Microsoft Office Word 2016 for Windows MAIL MERGE Page 97 of 105 Learning Objectives After completing the instructions in this booklet, you will be able to:  What is Mail Merge  Use of Mail Merge .  Reassign fields using the matching fields tool.  Create and Print Labels  What Is Mail Merge? Mail Merge is most often used to print or email form letters to multiple recipients. Using Mail Merge, you can easily customize form letters for individual recipients. Mail merge is also used to create envelopes or labels in bulk. A mail merge in Word will combine a preprepared letter with a mailing list, so that bulk mail is personalised before it is sent out. For example, you might be part of an organisation that has a list of members and you want to let them know about an upcoming Annual General Meeting. Your mailing list would be the list of members’ names and addresses, and the preprepared letter would be a letter informing them of the AGM. Each letter produced will be identical, apart from the personalised portions. The three files involved in the mail merge process are: 1. Your main document 2. Your mailing list 3. The merged document The Main Document You should prepare your document before you start the mail merge, so type that out and save it now. Once it’s ready, you will then tell Word the type of mail merge you are about to start: go to the Mailings tab and click Start Mail Merge > Letters. Figure 1: Mail Tab Page 98 of 105 Figure 2: Selecting Letter Now we will link the letter to your mailing list. The Mailing List Your mailing list can be stored in a variety of different locations, such as an Excel spreadsheet, an Access database, a directory of Outlook contacts, or an Office address list. It contains the personalised details that will be combined with the document. If you don’t have a mailing list when you begin the mail merge, you can get Word 2016 to create one during the merge. We recommend that you create the mailing list before you commence the merge though, so for this example we’ll assume you have an Excel spreadsheet that contains names and address that you want to mail the letter to. Link the Mailing List To The Document Go to the Mailings tab and click Select Recipients in the Start Mail Merge Group. We’re going to assume you have a mailing list ready to use, although you can create one on the fly. Select Use an Existing List. Figure 3: Linking Mailing List Page 99 of 105 In our example, we have an Excel Spreadsheet, so navigate to where that is and select it. Select the sheet that contains your data and click OK. If the first row in your spreadsheet is a header row, make sure that you check the box to say so. Figure 4: Linking Excel Workbook Now that you have established the link between your document and mailing list, save the document. We’re going to assume that you want to send your letter to everyone on your list, but if you want to, you can select only certain entries from the list. Insert Merge Fields We now need to tell Word what personal details to add to the letter and where. To do this, we will insert merge fields in the main document. We’re going to keep things very simple and we’re just going to insert the most basic information. In our example we will insert member names and addresses. First of all position the cursor where you want the address to appear on your letter. Then, on the Mailings tab, in the Write & Insert Fields group, choose Address Block. In the window that opens, you get the chance to review and amend the format of the address that will be inserted when the merge is actually run. Page 100 of 105 Figure 5: Inserting Address Block Make any changes you need and click OK. You will ten see the <> placeholder appear where you inserted it. Let’s add a greeting line: position the cursor where you want the greeting and in the Write & Insert Fields group, click Greeting Line. Again, you get the chance to review and amend teh greeting, so make your changes and click OK. You will see the <> placeholder where you inserted it. The address and greeting are standard items that most people will want to use in their mail merges, so they get their own special buttons in the ribbon. What if you want to insert data that is not in the Write & Insert Fields group? You will need the Insert Merge Fields button for that. In our example, we have an email address column in the spreadsheet. We will add that now: click Insert Merge Fields > email. Figure 6: Insert Merge Field Page 101 of 105 Word gets all the column headings in the spreadsheet and lists them for you to select from. An <> placeholder is inserted. All the <<>> placeholders inserted will get populated with real data from your spreadsheet when the merge is run. Run The Mail Merge The preparation is complete! All that is left to do is preview what the merged letter will look like, and then run it. Click Preview Results, and then choose the Next record button or Previous record button to make sure the names and addresses in the body of your letter look right. Figure 7 : Preview Merged Field Greetings Email Address Page 102 of 105 Make any changes you feel are necessary, and then, once happy, click Finish & Merge > Print Documents to run the merge and print. Figure 8: Merge and Print Document Don’t forget to save your document. Create and Print labels in Microsoft Word Start a new document to create new labels, or open an existing document that you used previously to merge labels. Note: Before labels can be made, the names and addresses must be stored in CSV file or another format that can be imported into the Mail Merge. Once a CSV file is prepared, the steps below can be followed to create labels using a mail merge. Figure 9: Mailings Tab Step one and two 1. In Microsoft Word, on the Office Ribbon, click Mailings, Start Mail Merge, and then labels. 2. In the Label Options window, select the type of paper you want to use. If you plan on printing one page of labels at a time, keep the tray on Manual Feed; otherwise, select Default. 3. In the Label vendors drop-down list, select the type of labels you are using. In our example, we are using Avery labels. 4. Select the product number of the labels. The product number is often shown in one of the corners of the label package. 5. Once everything is selected, click OK. Page 103 of 105 Figure 10: Labels Option Step three 6. After the labels have been created, click the Select Recipients button in Mailings tab, click Use Existing List and then click Browse under the Use an existing list heading. The Select Data Source dialog box appears. 7. Click the appropriate drive and folder, select the file that you want to use, and then click Open. Your data is probably in Sheet 1, so click OK. (If you renamed your sheet, it would have that name instead of Sheet1$.) Also make sure to have the box checked if your first row contains headers. Figure 11: selecting sheet name Word displays the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box for you to select specific recipients. When you finish, click OK. Your labels are displayed. You will see <>. This is good! Step four 8. Click the Address Block option in the Ribbon and verify the address is properly formatted. Page 104 of 105 9. If the address is not being displayed properly, click the Match Fields button and change how the fields are being matched. 10. Once the address is being displayed properly, click OK to place the “<
