Microsoft word mail merger with word 2007 to send personal email using macro or VB

Dear Praveen,
 
Microsoft word says that we should be able to do a Mail merge with Word 2007. Need to write a macro or VB code whichever is easy/faster. We have to send an urgent email to all members of say XYZ team  with a more personal note like say Dear Abraham(i.e first name).
 
Dear Firstname,
 
<content of the letter>
 
Sincerely,
XYZ Team.
 
Please let us know how can we do it. Any ideas, resources, sample code highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

What has this to do with MS Access?
If your merge data in Access?

<Microsoft word says that we should be able to do a Mail merge with Word 2007.>
Sure, just use the Mail Merge Wizard:
Mailings-->Start Mail Merge-->Start Mail Merge-->Step by step mail merge wizard...

<Need to write a macro or VB code whichever is easy/faster.>
Once the mail Merge wizard is run once, all you have to do is Merge the document for any other Mailings, so are you quite sure you need a Custom Macro or VBA to do this...

How good are you with VBA/Macros?
