Mailmerge directory (unique record with sub groups)
Momma-moomin 6/27/2007 1:12:01 PM
I am trying to merge based on an excel spreadsheet - I need to show several
records for one category on one page (if this was access it would be record
and subset), but can't find out how to tie records to one page/one unique
set. HELP!!

Have used <<next record>>for the subset data, but this then scrolls over
page after page

Word isn't really designed to do this but
a. see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/294686/en-us
b. to stop <<Next record>> going onto a new page, you have to change the
type of merge so it's a "directory" (also known as "catalog" merge.
