Default Graham Mayor -- individual merge letters

What do you mean by "original letter template"? The template I created (mail
merge.dot) which I then used in the SplitMerge macro does not have any page
breaks or sections breaks, nor does the letter I start with. This is what I'm
doing:

Open the letter I'm using in Word
Tools - Letters and Mailings - Mail Merge
Use the current document
Select your contacts
In the "write your letter" part I added the address fields
Complete the merge
Edit individual letters (Here, Word creates the single document that
contains all of my letters, each letter separated by a section break. This is
the first time section breaks appear and they are automatically generated by
the process Word goes through in doing the mail merge. It's in this document
that I run the macro.)

Does this make sense?
