How do I perform a mail merge into a table?
What I'd like to do is mail merge from my data source into a Word table. So, in order to put more than one record on a page, I use the NEXT field code on each new row. The problem with this is that if I have 20 rows per page and, say, use only 15, there are now 5 blank, but outlined rows in my output document. It would of course be easy to remove these rows, but the entire merge process w...

Merge data with 2 forms on one page
We have 2 forms, side-by-side in column format. At the top of each, are merge fields. When I use the "Next" field, it goes to the next record on the page, but then repeats the 2nd record on the next page. I've tried putting "NEXT" about everywhere I can think. Can this be done? I either get two records the same on a page or two different records on the same page with the next page r...
