Is the mailmerge main document of the Catalog or Directory type, which it
must be. From the result that you are getting, it sounds like it is
probably set as a Letters type main document, which it must NOT be.

Hi macropod,

Here is what i am getting now, I run the mail merge and I am now getting
the
one letter per vendor, but now I am getting blank pages for what looks
like
each record for that vendor, meaning for every row in my excel spreadsheet
for the vendor i am getting a blank page, and in my table I am just
getting
the first invoice record information. each blank page appears to be the
next
invoice record for that particular vendor. Also it keeps adding section
breaks when i do the merge.

sorry to be a pain and if for being "wordy", as you can probably tell I am
a
novice at this and teaching myself on the fly, so thanks for your help it
is
much appreciated.

Hi KFreds,

That's what the tutorial shows how to do. Even though the examples in the
tutorial are relatively simple, they contain all the logic
you need for this. The only thing you can't do using this technique is to
repeat some of the merge data after the 'table' data.

I should clarify a little more, the blanket letter I have inserts
certain
fields from my excel spreadsheet, then at the end of my letter I have a
table
with 8 columns and a row, within this row I am pointing the appropriate
merge
fields from my excel spreadsheet according to my column headers(all
these
fields are invoice info, dates amounts, doc numbers, invoice numbers,
all
info from my spreadsheet) I want to be able to have all the customers
invoice
info appear on this table by customer. Within the letter portion is
where my
Customer name and address are located. Hope this makes sense.

I have an excel spreadsheet that has multiple columns of information
that I
need to merge into letters to go out to customers. I have a list of
companies
with invoices associated with them, so, company a has 20 invoices, and
company b may have 10, company c 7 and so on(it ranges) instead of
creating a
single letter for each invoice(20 for company a) I want to create one
letter
with the 20 invoices listed instead of 20 single letters. I can merge
the
excel into the word and create the letter but I can't get the
information all
onto one letter. Currently,the letter takes the fields from the excel
spreadsheet and inserts them where I tell them by doing the doing the
mail
merge but now I want to take a step further and include all invoices
on one
letter.
