I have set up a form file in Microsoft Word With FName LName & Address. After
each label I have Next record. When I Merge this form file with Outlook
Contacts (I initiate it from Outlook) It always cuts off the last two names
on each page. The whole merge comes out to be about 50 pages & so there are
aproximately 100 names cut off by the end that I have to go through and find.
Is there a way to fix that?

You need to have the Next Record field BEFORE the first merge field in
each label on the sheet EXCEPT for the first label which must have no Next
Record field.

So instead of putting "Next Record" after zip code on a label, I would put it
above their name, is that correct? Thank you soooooo much Doug you have been
very helpful. I am going to try that. :O)

With recent Word versions (2002/3) propagating the labels will insert the
NEXT fields for you in their correct position -
