    the wizard is good. Here are some basic directions. create a 'template' in excel that has named columns: First Name, Last name, Address, State, Zip, etc. Then, you open up word and select 'mail merge' from Tools and Letter and Mailings. The wizard will take you thru the rest of the steps. It takes some playing around  with, but you will get it. It's hard to explain over the interwebs.
