Default Keep fields consistent regardless of length

I have a mail merge that consists of fields that are varying lengths. For
example, there are two fields, name and category. I put them both in a table
and replicate them so the next record apears and so on - that works fine.
BUT if the title is two words versus ten words makes the category print in
different positions. How can I lock down the field titles so it will not
change? Incidently, these are actually the 3M Post-It lables - so there are
six to a sheet (page), they use 2x3 tables. I copy into each cell with "next
record" as the word field.
