I have to send a letter to many people with the same data. I am
wondering if there is a way I can automate it. I have a list of people
names and addresses along with the content of the letter (which is the
same) and I want to generate a word document for each person. How can
I do this ?

Thanks,
Akhil

The feature you're describing is called "mail merge". Depending on which version
of Word you have, read one of these articles:
