[Thumbpick]

I'd like to piggyback on this series if I may. I'm using 4-up postcards and
can get the mail merge to work on a blank postcard (i.e., one w/o text from
me).

However, I want to type info on the left of the card and mail merge the
addresses in the usual (mid to lower right) of the cards. What happens is I
get an error message: "You cannot include DATA, NEXT, NEXTIF, or SKIPIF
fields in comments, headers, footers, footnotes, or endnotes."

I've tried using tabs, text boxes, etc. Cannot get it to work. Would
appreciate any help you could provide.

I read all thru Mayor's website and cannot find this problem addressed (no
pun intended).

I'm using Avery 8387 and want to mail merge addresses 4 per page, one on
each
postcard. I have a template for 2-up that allows for this, but can't find
one
for 4-up. How do I set this up?

I've been an Adobe junkie for many years, and am presently learning more
features of the Office suite. Help, please!
