Default Mail Merge

Trying to use Mail Merge for tent signs with name printed on both sides.
This means one is the reverse of the other. I am using Office 2003. I can
get the field names in the right rotation, but nothing will merge. My source
names are in a Word document, I have tried using PowerPoint for the tent
signs, and Word--neither will merge with my source document.

Is it possible for the names to print upside down/reverse on the second half
of the tent so that the names will appear correctly on both sides???

Assuming that you have the mergefields displaying in the required directions
by having rotated them plus or minus ninety degrees as can be done with text
in the cells of a table, see the article "Mailmerge Labels with Word XP" on
fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at:
