Default repeated data in mail merge

At times when I do a merge data from a proceding filed is inserted into a
label if the field for that label is blank. Example: Row A has Microsoft as
company name, Rows B C and D have no company name but when merged A, B and C
all have Microsoft as company name and row D does not. Does not always
happen and does not happen for all records.

This shouldn't happen if you merge to a new document, but you can
conditionally place the Company field
eg

{Mergefield Name}{IF{Mergefield Company} "" "
{Mergefield Company}"}
{Mergefield Address}
