macro for mail merge report

[homeless]

Could anyone tell me how to create a macro to open a mail merge report? I created a data entry form and used mail merge to get a report. Everytime when I use data entry form, I have to open Word first then Access form. After I finished data entry, I needed to save the form, copy a account # and go back to Word. Then used the account # to find the report in Word. It was very complex. Now I want to create a command button carrying macros or qureys in the data entry form. So I can just click the buttom after I finish data input, and the mail merge report will come out. How can I do? I don't know any progamming. Thank you for any help.

After I read FAQ181-28 and FAQ181-271, I wonder how to create a query whose criteria is looking at the form and can have other tables.The Word doc then mail merges to that query. What is [uniquefieldname]? Is it a primary key name? Such as Account #.
