mysql -> ODBC -> envelopes in Word

Hi!

I was told that one can access a mysql address database by means of ODBC
from Word, so that I can print the sender's and the receiver's on
envelopes. I have installed myODBC and I am running mysql-nt-max or
something, version 3.59, if I remember correctly.

How do I load my address table into Word for printing? The open
data-source dialogue box in Word does not list any mysql file-types, but
it lists Paradox, Access and some other database types.

If I only want to print envelopes to a subset of my address database, how
to I load the results of a query in Word for printing?

These questions are maybe more about Word then about mysql, but I would
appreciate if anyone can help me out.

Thanks,
Catalin
