I'm trying to use MailMerge to assemble letters containing multiple lines of 
information extracted from multiple data files, without success.

I have two data files, one containing a list of people who are to be included
in a seminar, and the other containing a list of the people who will moderate
the seminar (actually three or four different seminar groupings, all to run
concurrently).  I need to generate two sets of letters: 

1.  Extract a data record from list 1 to be the addressing information, and a
    data record from list 2 to tell the addressee when and where the seminar
    is to be, and by whom it will be moderated.  (For a seminar with three
    groups, this set will contain between 15 and 18 letters.)

2.  Extract a data record from list 2 to be the addressing information, and 
    six selected records from list 1, to tell the addressed moderator the
    names, etc., of the people who will be in his or her group.  (For a 
    seminar with three groups, this set will contain three letters.)

Am I trying to do the impossible?

Thanks for any help,
