Mail Merge Access Vs. FilMaker Pro

I am in the process of converting an Old FileMaker Pro database to Access Poject (Using SQL Server as back end).

In Filmaker Pro, to create a mail merge you can do a multiple search for a group of fields on a form or a group of values for the same field on the form. The result can then be exported to do a mail merge. Sounds so easy!

How do I simulate this process on Access? There are atleast 15 fields on the form. Hard to believe but there are certain things that can be done so easily on FileMaker while they take extra effort (and a lot of programming) on Access!

Thanks.
