Question : Create Word Documents from Excel Spreadsheet

I have to release 280 documents that are all identical except for 5 fields on them.  I have the data for each of those five fields in an Excel spreadsheet.  Is there any way to use a mail merge or tool like that to create the 280 documents & just have it pull from the specific colum/row for each document & then save a document for each based on another column in that field?

Answer : Create Word Documents from Excel Spreadsheet

Saving into individual files will require VBA. It's not trivial, but it can be done. Here is a link to an add-in and a detailed description of the ins and outs of the process.
