I was hoping somebody would know how to do this....
I have an imported file from another program, in column b is the name of each person I want to contact and in column a, c and d is the data I want to send to them. However, the formatting of the imported file means that if a name is in b1 then the data to send will be in rows 2, 3, etc. Until the next name in column 2! What makes it worse is that the names are in 'Mr john Smith' format and the address book in outlook is in 'Smith, John' format. I spend way too long doing what should be a simple thing where I should just be able to mail merge or something in order to get it to scan for names and mail each the relevant data. Can anybody help please?
