Firstly, thanks for reading this. I am trying to set up a mailmerge
between Word 2003 and Excel.
It's basically lists of people attending events.

Participant Date Event
John 18/01/06 Wine
Tom 18/01/06 Wine
Mick 18/01/06 Wine
Mary 18/01/06 Cheese
William 18/01/06 Cheese

I need to print out a sheet for each event. I need word to compare
Event Field and when it moves on from Wine, the Cheese participants
will print out on a new sheet. Does that make sence? At the moment it
is printing all the participants on to a page and when it moves on the
the next page the event data changes also ie wron participants on
events!!

Any help would be grateful

Regards,

Jake

You are trying to perform a "multiple items per condition (=key field)"
mailmerge which Word does not really have the ability to do:

See the "Group Multiple items for a single condition" item on fellow MVP
