Default I cant merge certain .csv files, what gives?

Convert the csv file to a Word table -
http://www.gmayor.com/convert_labels...mail_merge.htm - and see what
problems you can find in the resulting table around record 100. Make an
necessary corrections. Add a header row with suitable field names and use
the table as a merge data source.

For general merge information - see

I am trying to merge .csv files with over 900 records and the program
always stops merging after about 100. I get an error message stating
"WORD could not finish merging these documents or inserting this
database." What can I do to make this work? I am creating the
database in a program called CCH "Pro System fx Tax DataScanPlus." It
is a tax accounting data program. Please help.
