Hi - am doing a mail merge in word, (data source is Excel).

My merge word document is just an invitation insert which will be chopped in two, therefore I have exactly the same text at the top as the bottom.

I have "would like to invite ...«Name»..."

then I have exactly the same at the bottom of the page ... "would like to invite ... «Next Record»«Name»..."

I thought it was working but when I check it and go to page 2, it repeats the name that was at the bottom of the last page. I tried putting «Next Record» again after the second incidence but that doesn't work.

I realise this is difficult to explain but hope that you understand what I'm trying to say!! :)

Can anyone help please! :confused:

Hmm! Just found out that the preview is completely useless and it sorts it all out when you actually go ahead and merge!

Sorry! But hope this may help someone else!!
