                                                        (Subjective Type Questions)

                 A.  Answer the following questions.
                      1.  What is Mail Merge?
                    Ans.  Mail Merge is a feature of Word processor like ‘Writer’ in which the names and addresses of different recipients
                        are merged into one file and each address is merged with a copy of a particular letter by itself so that the same
                        letter is addressed to different recipients.

                      2.  What is a data source?
                    Ans.  Data source is a file that contains the names and addresses of recipients to be merged with the document.

                      3.  What do you understand by  Track Changes  in Word Processor  How will you activate tracking of changes
                    Ans.  The Track changes feature in ‘Writer’ helps a user to keep a record of formatting, text insertions, deletions
                        and comments made by multiple editors. A final document can then be created by accepting or rejecting the
                        proposed changes.
                        To activate tracking (recording) of changes:

                        Click on Edit   Changes   Record.
                      4.  What are the requirements to send mails by mail merge? Explain.
                    Ans.  To send mails by mail merge, there has to be:

                          Main Document (Letter)
                           Data Source (Address of recipients)
                        For doing Mail Merge, a document is typed as the main document which is sent to different recipients whose
                        data is available in the data source file.

                      5.  Write a short note on Personalizing document in mail merge.
                    Ans.  This step temporarily reduces the screen size of the mail merge wizard so that the user can edit and personalize
                        a particular document (if he needs) apart from the normal contents of the main document.
                        Following are the steps to Personalize document:

                        Step 1:  Click on the  Edit individual document  button to personalize and modify the content of a particular
                                document .
                        Step 2:  After the editing work, click to open the previous window.
                        Step 3:  Click on the   ext  button

                 B.  Application based question.                                                          L if e Sk il l s  &  V a l ues

                        Manohar has to send an invitation to his relatives to invite for the marriage of his elder brother. As the time
                        is less, it is difficult to write the content of the letter again and again. Which feature of word processor can
                        Manohar use to do his task quickly?
