I am creating a one page document with 6 individual docs/two columns 6
recipients. When I do a "mail merge" and choose the category "name" etc. the
whole document (all 6 individual docs) receive the same name from my merged
data list (excel spreadsheet) instead of 6 names merging. Help.
Thanks!

You need to insert a <<Next Record>> field before the first merge field in
all but the letter on the top left of the sheet.
