I am trying to make a list of names all on one page in Word. I am using mail merge and my source document is an Excel file. When I merge my document, I get a section break in between each name so that each name is on a separate page rather than a list of names all on one page. How do I set up my document and get rid of the section break between each name?

Change your mail merge main document type to
a. "Catalog" (Word 2000 and earlier - use the first button in the Mail
Merge Helper to do that) or
b. "Directory" (Word 2002 and later - either enable the Mailmerge toolbar
using Tools|Customize and use the first button on it, or navigate back to
the first pane of the Mail Merge Wizard.
