Mail Merge Previews Wrong
I had an Avery Label Template that I was using in Word to create Name Tab
Labels (1 column, 2 to a page - small label sheets). When I merged from Excel (using Graham's excellent directions with the Next Record field) and got to the "Preview Your Labels" point, the labels appeard wrong in that the first record was on label #1, the second record was on Label #2, and then the second record showed again on Label #3, what was record number three showed on Label #4, record number three showed again on Label #5, record number four showed on Label #6, etc., etc., with the records on the second label of each page repeating on the first label of the next page throughout the document as I used the Next Recipient button to preview. When I went on to the "complete the Merge" step and used the "Print" feature, they continued to print wrong, with the repeated labels for each new sheet. BUT - when I used the Edit the "Edit individual labels..." tool and previewed the labels in a completed Word document, they were correct and printed correctly. Go figure that one??? |
