    2. Sales by dollars table (like in point 4 above but with totals)
    3. Litre sales chart
    4. Dollar sales chart
13. Use the addresses you invented in previous lessons to mail merge your reports to.
    Tip:  You need to copy (Ctrl+C) tables and a chart to the NEW original mail merge document file named and saved as "mail merge source.doc"  Use the letter mail merge wizard to merge to another Word document I want you to save to the file name "mail merge test.doc"
14. A unique first paragraph scores bonus marks.
15. Once you have completed the basics of this Excel info into mail merge report, you can go back to your Excel table and work on formatting (working on it's appearance) and then work on the formatting of the test Word doc.
