    Using Access to maintain client data and generate standardised letters

    I'm not sure if Access is the right program to use for this scenario as I only know the basics on creating the database.

    I want to be able to create a client database and then be able to generate a number of standard template letters at any particular time for selected clients.



    I don't want a mail merge!!

    Can access be used for this?

    Ideally I would like to create a form for administrators to use to input new client info and update existing clients info and then just be able to click a button (or the like) to generate the standardised letter for a particular scenario.

    Please help me!!

    Thanks in advance

    If you don't want mail merge with Word then use report in Access. Here is one method to filter report: http://datapigtechnologies.com/flash...mtoreport.html
