Aspose::Words::MailMerging Namespace Reference

The Aspose.Words.MailMerging namespace contains classes of the "original" mail merge reporting engine.

This reporting engine requires the document to be marked up with Microsoft Word mail merge fields, but supports more functionality than Microsoft Word's mail merge.

The engine allows to quickly and easily populate a report template with data from various sources such as DataTable, DataSet, DataView, IDataReader or an array of values.

The MailMerge object which provides access to the reporting functionality is available via the Document.MailMerge property.

For the newer and more advanced reporting engine based on the LINQ method syntax see Reporting.
