Skipping every other record
I am mail merging from Word to postcards using data from Excel. When it
prints it only prints every other record. i.e. if I send 300 records to be printed it will print 2,4,6,8,10 etc and print 150 of the 300. I go through and manually check 1,3,5,7,9 to print and it will print 1,5,9 etc... each time skipping every other record. I go through this until I have none left to print. |

Skipping every other record
You have a Next Record field where it is not required. I assume that there
are two postcards to each sheet and if that is the case the only place where you should have a Next Record field is before the first mergefield in the second postcard. -- Hope this helps.

Thank you Doug but I only have 1 4.25 X 5.5 postcard entering the machine at
q time. Any other thoughts? "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: You have a Next Record field where it is not required.
