Mail merge multi-line LibreOffice 6

Hello,

I need help with my professional mailing on LibreOffice 6 in Windows 10

I have to summon trainers for several workshops, with multiple co-trainers. These fields are therefore merged from a Calc table to a table in my Writer file.

I can't find any way to add merged lines in my Writer table.

Could someone please help me? I've been struggling with this issue since yesterday without finding anything online... :(

Thank you very much in advance.

Configuration: Macintosh / Safari 14.1.1

    Hello.

    I have never read anywhere that you could perform a mail merge in a table...
    You should execute your mail merge in regular text, and then convert the resulting text into a table.

    The problem is that the merger will involve about 80 letters that I will have to go through one by one... ????

    Well yes, of course!
    Unless you give up wanting to merge into a table...

    I have no choice, it's a model imposed on all services...

    So the person in charge who made the decision to impose this model will have to give you the instructions to follow ...
