See the article "Mailmerge Labels with Word XP" on fellow MVP Graham Mayor's
website at http://www.gmayor.com/mail_merge_lab...th_word_xp.htm To remove duplicates, if your data source is a Word table, you will need to sort the table (select Sort from the Tables menu) and then also on the site to which I referred you above, you will find a method of dealing with duplicates in the article about Finding and Replacing with Wildcards (Click on the Up button on that site to see all of the article that Graham has there). If your data source is not in a Word table, you can get it into that format by using a Directory type mail merge in the main document of which you insert a one row table into the cells of which you insert the mergefields from your data source. When you execute that merge to a new document, that document will contain a table with a row of data for each record in the data source. You can then insert a row at the top of that table into which you enter the names of the mergefields. Save that document and use it as your data source. -- Hope this helps.
