Printing 1 Label per Page - "Next Record" Not Working -- More Info
FYI: I changed the datasource on the labels to an Excel spreadsheet, and they
labels printed correctly, no longer one to a page. As a workaround, I am having the customer query the database directly. I'd still appreciate any information or suggestions that anyone may offer, especially how "Next Record" works. Thanks again, Kim |

Next record simply tells Word to move to the next record in the data
source and continue processing the merge fields in the current document. The chances are that the problem has nothing to do with Next record but that Word has not correctly recognised the format of your (original) data source. You might be able to tell simply by setting up a new blank document as a Directory/Catalog merge, putting a few Merge fields into the document (and no Next record, then performing the merge. If merge generates output that has data for each record in your data source, then that theory is probably wrong, and cannot tell you what the problem is; if Word produces output for only some of the records, the theory may be correct.
