I have a data source that contains student information that has about 6
thousand rows. I need to merge the data into a document that inserts each
class they are attending then insert a page break at each student. The goal
is to printout student schedules by period, course name, teacher and room
number. The data source puts these fields in rows which is sorted by student
ID# then student name. I don't know to pull in the multiple lines for each
student to begin with. It was suggested I create a macro but have no clue
what I need the macro to do. I tried using the IF.....then but not getting
any results. I don't know how to get the multiple lines to merge then break
when the student ID# changes. Here's a data sample below and then what I'm
hoping to do in a mail merge:
