mail merge envelopes
I have created a primary file to do envelopes and a secondary file which
contains the data. When I merge these two files I get a blank envelope between each complete one. I can't actually see or delete the blank envelopes, but if I merge 3 entries, 5 envelopes are printed (the second and fourth ones are blank); if I merge 10 entries, I get 19 envelopes (once again every second envelope is blank). At the bottom of the screen where it says how many pages there are it has the incorrect amount - for example it will say that there are 19 pages, if I use the page down button it will only go to the odd pages. |

If you execute the merge to a new document, do you get a document containing
blank envelopes? If you do not, it's a problem with the feeding of the envelopes to the printer. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Tracey" wrote in message ...

How did you prepare this envelope document? My guess it has a blank page
attached? It would be simpler if you started with an envelope template - there's one you can use for download from my web site. Replace the macrobutton field with your address fields. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Tracey wrote: I have created a primary file to do envelopes and a secondary file which contains the data.
