Default Too many labels generated

It sounds as though you are printing labels from the label preview rather
than completing the merge either to a new document or to the printer.

In Word 2003 or 2007, when I merge an Excel .xls spreadsheet into
mailing labels, I get far too many labels. On the first page of
labels, I get Records 1-30; on the second page pf labels, I get
Records 2-31, etc., until I get to the last page, which only has the
last record on it.

I know this must be a simple fix, but I am unable to discern my
error. I think I have been following the directions meticulously,
but obviously not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
