One of the mall’s services is offering classes related to antiques and their restoration. She has gathered her customer and class information into a collection of tables and begun entering this data into her database. Linda has asked you to extract information from this data she has compiled thus far, so she can create customer information lists and analyze current course offerings and enrollment. The Antiques Mall database contains the following tables:  tblCustomer: This table contains information about each customer such as Name, Address, Phone Number, as well as if the customer currently receives the mall’s newsletter. Each customer is uniquely identified by a Customer ID.  tblClass: This table contains the relevant information for each class that is offered by the mall including class name, meeting times, cost of the class per student, as well as other information. Each class is represented by a unique ClassID and also contains the InstructorID of the instructor that currently teaches the class. Thus far Linda has only entered data for the first several months of 2012 though she expects to add more once she has all of the information ready to go.  tblClassEnrollment: This table lists the information for every course registration. It includes the Customer’s ID, Class ID (the course they registered for), and whether or not they have paid the fees for this course.  tblInstructor: This table contains the relevant information for the instructors at the mall. It contains their name, Address, Contact Information, as well as the fee that the instructor charges Antiques Mall per class. Each instructor is given a unique Instructor ID. You will be using the information to create a listing of all the classes that will be offered in November.

Each document has the same basic information except for the information you would like to personalize. For instance, if you are an insurance agent and you would like to send out a form letter to your customers who will be up for renewal in the next month, you could create a basic form letter as your template and then use the mail merge feature in word to personalize the letter. You can also use the mail merge feature to create customized envelopes, labels, and email messages. </p><p>1 You will now create a personalized form letter that lists the classes you will offer in November 2012.
