The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of 
  Van Kampen Merritt Insured Tax Free Income Fund: 

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Van Kampen
Merritt Insured Tax Free Income Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended
December 31, 1994,we considered its internal control structure, 
including procedures for safeguarding securities, in order to determine 
our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the 
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not 
to provide assurance on the internal control structure. 

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
internal control structure. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and
related costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. Two of
the objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safe'guarded against
loss from unauthorized use or disposition and that transactions are executed
in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit
the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. 

Because of inherent limitations in any system of internal control structure,
errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of
any evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that
it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. 

Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce
to a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts
that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited
may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the
normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no
matters involving the internal control structure, including procedures for
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of December 31, 1994. 

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit
the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. 

Because of inherent limitations in any system of internal control structure,
errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of
any evaluation of the structure to future periods is subject to the risk that
it may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. 

Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily
disclose all matters in the internal control structure that might be material
weaknesses under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or
operation of the specific internal control structure elements does not reduce
to a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts
that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited
may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the
normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no
matters involving the internal control structure, including procedures for
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of December 31, 1994. 

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and
the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of 
  Van Kampen Merritt Limited Term Municipal Income Fund: 

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Van Kampen
Merritt Limited Term Municipal Income Fund (the "Fund") for the year ended 
December 31, 1994, we considered its internal control structure, including
procedures for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing 
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial 
statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide 
assurance on the internal control structure. 

The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
internal control structure. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and
related costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. Two of
the objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safe'guarded against
loss from unauthorized use or disposition and that transactions are executed
in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit
the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
