Default how do I repeat the same merge fields on one page

Are you using a Directory type Mail Merge main documnet, where you have just
one instance of the data appearing in the mail merge main document and you
get the three separate parts when you execute the merge?

If you are not doing that, then there must be { NEXT } or Next Record
fields somewhere there to causing the records to index on the one page.

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
services on a paid consulting basis.

Thank you for your quick reply! There are no {NEXT} fields between the
three
locations - there are 3 separate parts to the form but the second record
displays in the 2nd part of the page and the 3rd record displays in the
3rd
part of the page. I'm stumped!

If you are using MERGEFIELD fields to insert the data, and the current
record has not changed (i.e. there are no { NEXT }, { NEXTIF } or {
SKIPIF } fields between the two locations where you need the same data,
use the same MERGEFIELD field(s) a second time.

It's generally easier to see this stuff if you use Alt-F9 to reveal the
underlying field codes.
