Default Separate mailmerge letters

I have done a mailmerge and want to separate them out so that I can send them
as individual attachments. Is there a quick way to do this apart from copying
and pasting each one to a new document?
I am a confident user of Word but do not do visual basic programming.

Default Separate mailmerge letters

See http://www.gmayor.com/individual_merge_letters.htm and
http://www.gmayor.com/EmailMergeWithAttachments.htm
Download the two add-ins - but please read the instructions thoroughly. For
the second add-in to work correctly, the field used in the first add-in to
create the filenames of the split documents must contain no illegal filename
characters. The first add-in can deal with such characters, but the second
has no direct reference to the changed names created by the first when there
are such illegal characters. You'll see what I mean when you run it.
