In that particular case, you would need
a. to use a directory merge (sometimes also termed a "catalog" merge)
b. to insert fields like
{ MERGEFIELD Counter } { MERGEFIELD Description }
({ MERGEFIELD GPS })
c. to insert the heading "Counter" somehow, e.g.
- in the header (so it appears on each page)
- manually, post-merge
- by putting a nested field that checks for record 1, e.g. like this
{ IF { MERGESEQ } = 1 "Counter
" }{ MERGEFIELD Counter } { MERGEFIELD Description }
({ MERGEFIELD GPS })
Or have I missed the point?

Yeah sorry I guess I wasn't very clear in what I am trying to do. So in the
spread sheet I have looks something like this:
Counter Description GPS
00010 Tree 123456
00025 Road 456789
00040 Fence 987654
The document I want to look like this:
Counter
00010 Tree
(123456)
00025 Road
(456789)
00040 Fence
(987654)
I hope this makes more sense and you are able to help. Thanks.

It sounds as if Graham has understood what you are trying to do but if
not, maybe you could spell it out a bit more, e.g. what have you got in
your Excel sheet and what do you want to end up with in Word?

I am wanting to move all data under a number of headings from Excel to Word.
For example counter number and a list of the counter numbers I have
entered will move across, 0001, 0002, 0003. Is there any way of doing this
without having to make more headings?
