Mail Merge Duplication
beckyb5712 10/21/2008 8:29:01 PM
I have Excel spreadsheet with names, addresses, etc. which I am merging to
Avery 5260 labels. The problem is... 1st pg of labels is fine, but on the
following pages the 2nd column of names/addesses are repeating, (.i.e, A, B,
C on 1st page of labels, then 2nd page will have B, C, D,; 3rd pg, C, D, E,
etc). My excel spreadsheet was exported from another software program other
than Microsoft. What is going on? Thanks

It sounds like you may not be actually executing the merge, but are just
previewing/printing a preview of the results.
