Default Word 2003, mail merge & page numbering

If your merge is a "Directory" or "Catalog" type merge, this is expected
behaviour because no new sections are created.

If there is no reason for it to be a Directory or catalog merge, change the
merge type so it is a Letter merge and try again.

I would guess in this case that if you need to use a Catalog merge, you
could insert a "Next page section break" at the end of your mail merge main
document.

Hello, I have an 8 page initial document that includes a numbered list.
When
I merge to a new document before printing, the page numbering continues
from
page 8 to page 9... . It does not restart the page numbering. The numbered
lists behave in the same manner i.e. In the second set of 8 pages the list
continues with the numbering.

I have never seen this behaviour before, how can I fix this.
