How do I make a list of people from an *.mdb recipients list
I have printed envelopes using a mail merge in Word. How do I print a
one-page list of the recipients' names and addresses using the same *.mdb list? When I try to make a directory from the recipients' list each record is on a separate page. I want all records to be on one page. In other words, I want a single-page list of the people I sent invitations to. Any help? |

How do I make a list of people from an *.mdb recipients list
In the first step of the Mail Merge Wizard, or using the first button on the
Mail Merge toolbar, choose the "Directory" option. Peter Jamieson "Vicki" wrote in message ... I have printed envelopes using a mail merge in Word.

How do I make a list of people from an *.mdb recipients list
Ok, it shouldn't, unless you have done something like..
a. inserted a page break in your mail merge main document b. inserted a paragraph that has "page break before" formatting, or used a paragraph style with that formatting attached (I would suspect the latter, if you have used a Heading style to introduce each entry in your directory).

How do I make a list of people from an *.mdb recipients list
I think I didn't put enough in my main document (I had only Last Name and
Address on one line). What do I put there if I want is a list of Last Name and Address for each record? How do I get it to put consecutive records on the same page? Thank you for helping.

How do I make a list of people from an *.mdb recipients list
Are you sure that you are using a Directory type mailmerge main document. I
assume that because of your use of the terminology "*.mdb recipients list" that you are using Word XP or Word 2003. If you are using an earlier version of Word, it is called a Catalog type mail merge. In either case, if you insert a one row table into the main document and into the cells of that table, you insert the mergefields, then when you execute the merge to a new document, that new document will contain a row of data for each record in the data source. There should be nothing else in the main document apart from that one row table. -- Hope this helps.
