Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
A form-letter workflow separates invariant document content from variable recipient data.
In mail merge, the main document holds the common text and merge fields, while a data source supplies one record for each recipient.
Application
Create one main letter containing the common body and merge fields such as name or address.
Connect the letter to a recipient list; each row supplies the variable values for one person.
Word processes each row and generates a separate personalized copy while preserving the common letter body.
Contrast
Track Changes records edits and reviewer markup; it does not generate recipient-specific letters.
AutoCorrect fixes configured typing patterns; it does not bind a recipient list.
Find and Replace locates and substitutes text inside documents; it does not iterate through recipient records.
Mail Merge links fields in a main document to a recipient data source and produces personalized copies.
Result
The feature is Mail merge.
