Default Printing MailMerge from both start and end of table in Excel Database

I am using MS Word 2000. I am printing on a HP 8100 duplex printer. I have
an 8 page letter I am printing and merging the address into it. I am
printing on both sides of the 11 x 17 paper a total of 8 pages so when you
fold it it makes a booklet. The collate is checked in the print dialog box.
1. The 1st problem is that when printed, the first merged address is from the
beginning of the database and the next one is from the end of the database.
From there it alternates beginning and end.
2. The 2nd problem is when it prints from the beginning of the database the
pages face down and then when it prints from the end of the database they are
facing up. I am printing 600 copies and doing a bulk mailing so I have to
hand sort the zip codes. it is a pain. HELP?
