# Mail merge Examples
This repository contains examples that illustrates how to mail merge Word documents in C# and VB.NET using Syncfusion’s [.NET Word library](https://www.syncfusion.com/word-framework/net/word-library?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-docio-examples) (Essential® DocIO) without Microsoft Word or Office interop dependencies.
# Mail merge in Word documents
Mail merge is a process of merging data (replacing merge fields) from a data source into the template Word document.
The Syncfusion® [Word library](https://www.syncfusion.com/word-framework/net/word-library?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) (Essential® DocIO) has a powerful [mail merge](https://www.syncfusion.com/word-framework/net/word-library/mail-merge?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-docio-examples) API to generate personalized reports like letters, pre-addressed envelopes, address labels, invoice, payroll, and more. It performs mail merge faster in a batch process without Microsoft Word or Office interop dependencies. The generated reports can be saved as a Word document, PDF, image, HTML, and more.

## Syncfusion® .NET Word Library
The Syncfusion® DocIO is a [.NET Word library](https://www.syncfusion.com/document-processing/word-framework/net/word-library?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) allows you to add advanced Word document processing functionalities to any .NET application and does not require Microsoft Word application to be installed in the machine. It is a non-UI component that provides a full-fledged document instance model similar to the Microsoft Office COM libraries to iterate with the document elements explicitly and perform necessary manipulation.
Take a moment to peruse the [documentation](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/getting-started?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples), where you can find basic Word document processing options along with the features like [mail merge](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/working-with-mail-merge?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples), [merge](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-document/merging-word-documents?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples), [split](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-document/split-word-documents?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) and [compare documents](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-document/compare-word-documents?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples), [find and replace](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/working-with-find-and-replace?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) text in the Word document, [protect](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/working-with-security?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) the Word documents, and most importantly, the [PDF](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-to-pdf?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) and [Image](https://help.syncfusion.com/file-formats/docio/word-to-image?utm_source=github&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=github-github-docio-examples) conversions with code examples.
