I'm having a problem Word (2002 sp3) mailmerge doc that groups records
from a data source together to print them on a single page.

The doc should print all names that are grouped together on a single
page. However, the document inserts"Section Breaks (Next Page)" breaks
between each record which results in a sepereate page for each name.

I created my document based on the following MS KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;211303

I've tried several different data sources to try to correct this
problem but I cant figure out how to correct this problems.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Lee

Have you used a directory type mail merge main document which is the
equivalent in Word 2002 of the catalog type mail merge main document
referred to in the KB article.
