Hi All.

In a row in Excel I have a field named Items that looks like this:
     apple/orange/pear/peach

The whole row includes
     Items, Last, First, Address, City, State, Zip

I may have hundreds of rows in the worksheet.

In my mail merge i Want a normal name/address block but I would like the 
individual items in the Items field to appear as a column in the body of the 
letter like my sample below.

How do I get it to happen?  Is it an Excel thing or a Word thing?

Clues appreciated.  /gl
