Re: [libreoffice-users] Mail merge manual field entry

A related question, which may help me figure out what I need, is how 
does one manually work through a mail merge?  I only see the wizard, but 
what if I've already created a document and just want to change a few 
fields?  I don't want to have to enter a wizard and work through the 
entire thing just to edit that document.  That function might also allow 
me to hand-enter field names for this merge document.
