Default Mail Merge by category into tables

Good morning!

I am using MS Word 2000 and am a fairly adept user. I have a large Excel
database of vendors that I would like to merge into a catalog, sorted by
Vendor Category. I followed the Microsoft Tutorial "Use Mail Merge to Create
a List Sorted by Category in Word 2000" and was able to generate that merge
successfully.

I would like to be able to merge my data into tables that have three vendors
across, similar to mailing labels, with the vendor group atop each of the
tables. I can create a table for each record successfully, however, when I
try to put three next to one another, and use the "next record" command, I am
told I can not insert IF, SKIP, NEXT command in other fields.

Is there a work around? I really don't want to create a simple mail merge
and manually type in all of the headers...

Thank you so much!
