If I understand correctly, you may be interesting in utilising the Mail Merge feature in MS Word.

All you will need is Word 2003, Excel and Outlook (not OExpress).

In a nutshell, the Excel document is your database of e-mail address, names of contacts etc. and you link this to your word document with pre-typed content and special fields that allow the e-mail to be customised with contacts name and other details depending on how you want to use it.

It’s worth using Mail Merge for that purpose and in my experience works fairly well.
