The last few days I've been working with the Excel and access to put together databases and spreadsheets. Much of this was not new to me so it was more of a refresher. However I was not very familiar with mail merge and I did have trouble with it at first but was successful in the end. I'm not sure if my mail merge saved correctly though because when I went to submit my information I could not get it on the lab computers. But overall I think this will be very useful in the future with a little practice, in order to send numerous amounts of letters with just a few clicks of a button. As a teacher I will be able to use the information through mail merge to accumulate grade averages much easier as well.
