Let's go ahead and see how we adjust other merge fields. We saw how we adjusted our address block and there's a lot of different options there that we can change. Now we're gonna go ahead and create the salutation which is basically our, Dear So and So, line. So, first we have to turn that on or off. I create it in the main document, I created a Dear So and So line, but this would insert one as a generic and it would be the, according to the fields that we choose. So we have, some of the options we can put last name, first name, we can do with a title, without a title. And we also, in the Open Office Program, we have something for, special for female recipients and we can change the fields accordingly and there's a general salutation, which is basically the salutation that if the field is empty, if there is no name to be put in it will just say, To Whom It May Concern. So, over here we, I'm not going to create a salutation because I have it in the body of my letter. But I'll show you how to adjust the layout of the address block or the salutation. We see the salutation is greyed out because we didn't create one but the address block position is highlighted and if we look at our letter we see that right now the address block, where it's located underneath the Dear So and So line, and that's not really the appropriate place for it so we have a way to change it by just setting the actual distance from the top of the page. We have it set here, we can go ahead and decrease the distance from the top of the page and we see as we're decreasing that distance it's actually moving up the top of the page. And we find a place where we want it and we can go ahead and leave it there, that will be the final place for the address block and now it fits more appropriately into our letter.
