Bcc in mail merge word

In Microsoft Word, bcc stands for "blind carbon copy". When you use the bcc field in a mail merge, it allows you to send a copy of the email to a list of recipients without including their email addresses in the "To" or "CC" fields.

Here's how to use the bcc field in a mail merge in Word:

  1. Open your Word document and go to the "Mailings" tab in the ribbon.
  2. Click on the "Select Recipients" button and choose "Use an existing list" or "Type a new list".
  3. In the "Select Recipients" dialog box, enter the email addresses of the recipients you want to send the email to in the "To" field.
  4. In the "Mail Merge" pane, click on the "Insert Merge Field" button and select "bcc" from the drop-down menu.
  5. In the "Insert Merge Field" dialog box, select the email address field that you want to use for the bcc field.
  6. Click "OK" to insert the bcc field.
  7. In the "Mail Merge" pane, click on the "Preview" button to preview the email.
  8. In the preview window, you can see the email addresses of the recipients in the "To" field, but the email addresses in the bcc field will not be visible.
  9. Click "OK" to send the email.

Note that when you use the bcc field, the email addresses of the recipients will not be visible to each other, and the email will not be sent to the recipients in the "To" field.
