When I setup my label mail merge doc (Avery 5160), the table is established
and the cells are blank. I insert database field Company, Name, Address,
etc. in cell #1. I preview and only one record show per page.

I copy <<Next Record>> from the drop down into all other cells. Same
results. 250 pages with one record per page.

How do I get the mail merge to give me 250 records consecutively through all
labels?

thanks

You need to click on the "Update Labels" button in the Write & Insert Fields
section of the Mailings tab of the Ribbon.
