I tried this an it will go to the next record on the second postcard but
repeat this record on the first postcard on page 2 (what would normally be
the third postcard overall). I then tried to insert a Next Record before the
1st postcard and then the same names show up one or two postcards later. Now
I'm having problems troubleshooting because the "Next Record" isn't showing
up on the paper so I'm not even sure where I've inserted it.

There should be a Next Record before the first mergefield in the second
post card on the sheet. Where do you have it?

I'm trying to create two 1/2 size postcards on one page in word and then
merge names and addresses into EACH postcard from an Excel spreadsheet. I
cannot find a way to do this without merging the same name twice. I'm
using
the "next record" feature in word and I still haven't figured out how to
merge each name ONE TIME ONLY in the top or bottom half of the page (i.e.
on
the top or bottom postcard).
