Try merging records 1 to 1,000 and then separately merge records 1,001 to
2,000

...
trying to Mail Merge Excel Spreadsheet data into a letter.
List is 2,000 names approx.
First, I want to save the "merged" mailing as a file to be actually
printed
by a third party.
So, i clicked "edit letters" or something figuring it would yield a file I
could hand off to someone else for printing.
Things seemed to be going along but after a while the merge stopped and I
got a message saying "field calculation error in record no. 1641, Word
could
not complete the merge".
Looking at the results up to record 1640 I see that around record 1630 the
signature (which is a picture of a signature) stope appearing.
This signature is part of the letter itself and has nothing to do with the
Excel data.

Help!
