Default Mailmerge with varying output

Word isn't designed to do this - if possible, use a Report generator
designed to do it (e.g. the one in Access).

Or try e.g.

and/or

Can a mailmerge be set up to produce a document like this:

Name
Address
City, State Zip

item1
item2
item3


The number of items varies for each name.

My source data is setup like this

Jones, address, city, st, zip item 1
Jones, address, city, st, zip item 2
Jones, address, city, st, zip item 3
Smith, address, city, st, zip item 1
Smith, adddress, city, st, zip item 2
Doe, address, city, st, zip item 1
Thomas, address, city, st, zip item 1
Johnson, address, city, st, zip item 1

I would like each letter I create to list the items associated with each
name.

Thanks for any help
