Sounds like you might have headers and footers set up in your normal.dot
template. Try renaming it to Normal.old and then restart Word and try the
merge again.

Thanks Peter,
This is a short mailing list only 1 page. The material that is part of the
header has some of the titles used in making template such as last name,
first name, position, company, etc which I saw in making my list for the
template. The other part has a dotted line extending down about an inch
from
the top of the page to a shaded line running across the top of the page,
further down in the middle of the page on the left hand side is a stylized
globe, and at the bottom is a shaded line running half way across the
bottom
of the page with a dotted line running the remainder of the way across.
I know where the the titles came from but not how they got there. The
other
I haven't a clue.

Can you describe what "some" means? I mean, does this appear on some
pages,
every other page, part of some pages or what?

If you are seeing a watermark in the main body of a document, the chances
are that that watermark has been inserted (at some time) into one of your
headers/footers and saved, either accidentally or deliberately, into a
template (Normal, or a template you're using for your mail merge main
document). Have a look around! Just bear in mind that Word has around 6
different header/footer areas for 1st page in a section, subsequent
pages,
odd/even pages and so on.

On the list of names and addresses I have created and stored all of the
data
appears correctly on the screen. However when printed some header
titles
appear along with a watermark design and a footer design. This ruins
several
of the mail labels on the page. How do I eliminate this unwanted
material
while keeping the material I want
