Default 1 page, different records

Insert a Next Record field before the first mergefield that you want to
contain the details of the next record. In your case, that would mean at
the beginning of columns 2 and 3. Do not put one before the first merge
field in column 1 and the data for that field will automatically come from
the next record when the merge facility commences a new page. The Next
Record field is available from the Word Fields list.

Hello,
I'd like to print different records (with several fields each) in the same
sheet, and I'd like them to be in 3 different columns.
The 1st column looks just fine, but when I try to replicate the fields in
the 2nd column, what I get are the fields for the same record as in column
1,
not those for the following record.
How should I do this?
Thanks,
Anna
