I am trying to produce documents using mailmerge where each document contains
a value for a month field. E.G.
January 0.3
February 1.3
March 0.7

I would like to graph this data so that each person gets a graph of their
results. Can this be done?

Not with any ease. You'll find a short discussion on the problem with a sample
file for one of the suggested approaches on my website, in the MailMerge FAQ.

Thank you for your sample word files, however when I run the doc I only get
one page in the results when there are 9 records in your source data doc.
How do I get all 9 pages in the results?
