MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / January 2004Next Record
I am using the next record field to print several merged names on the same piece of paper. This works fine except when starting a new page it goes back to the next record. Perhaps easier to explain with exampl Page 1 page 2 page Tom Smith Mabel Jones Bob Wood Mabel Jones Bob Wood Sid Jame Bob Wood Sid James David Co Sid James David Coe John Lydo Dave Coe John lydo John Lydo What I am after is the names to all run consecutively 6 to a pag Any ideas what I am doing wron Thank Kar Hi =?Utf-8?B?a3dvbw==?=, > I am using the next record field to print several merged names on the same piece of paper.

Which version of Word are we dealing with and what's the data source? 2. Is this a "form letter" type of setup, labels, or catalog? Have you tried setting up for a catalog, leaving out the NEXT fields? 3. Are you actually seeing the duplication of names, with one less appearing (something I can't imagine mail merge is doing)? Or did you just copy/paste the same names for convenience's sake? Can you show us how the main merge document is setup?
