Word&apos;s mail merge function then automatically combines this text with a mailing list from Excel or Outlook. This produces many personally addressed letters without typing each one by hand. Copilot needs a paid add-on license; the mail merge function itself is included in every version of Word.</description><pubDate>Thu, 13 Aug 2026 08:40:53 GMT</pubDate><category>AI in Practice</category><category>Copilot</category><category>Microsoft Word</category><author>Brian Beckmann</author></item></channel></rss>
