Saving Each Individual Merged Output Letter To A New Document

This is the scenario:

2 Page Letter going to 150 separate people.

Output file thus produces a 300 page file with 150 section breaks.

There is a macro that will separate out each individual output letter to a new file.

Personally, I would probably just use two trays if I had to use letter head or just print out the entire 300 page file.  But when there are agreements being used for the merge and let us say that there are 10 agreements generated, it will sometime make sense to separate them into separate output files.  The following link will take you to a macro that does just that.

If you look in Microsoft's Knowledge Base, you will find that there is an old article that deals with this very issue:

The macro presented in the article, even though it was written for Word 97, will work just fine in Word 2007 and later versions. It allows you to separate a merged document into individual files, based on the section breaks:

There will be times when this makes perfect sense to do and in other scenarios it will make perfect sense to just print the entire file and then collate.  Either way, this gives you an additional option regarding merge.
