Hello,

I am looking for a solution that allows the use of the same function as Word mail merge, but with an Excel spreadsheet.

In other words, can you do mail merge directly in Excel without going through Word?

Thank you all.

Hi

What type of mail merge do you want to do?
Mail, Fax, Email, other?

See you later!

I was mainly thinking about letters.

Example: sending a table to a list of recipients (the list itself in the form of an Excel table)

Not that simple, EXCEL is not really designed for that.
Unless you try with macros, but that's going to be a complicated mess.

Now, if you do have WORD, you can link the two to manage your lists and send embedded EXCEL tables in WORD.

But we quickly arrive at something called ACCESS.

I will get back to you if I find something more satisfactory.

Re

After activating my EXCEL, I noticed in the HELPER that there is a chapter: Create a Word mail merge from EXCEL data

If that works for you, we just need to follow it.
