Default Mail Merge

no! i've solved it!.when merging with excel you must not leave blank lines in
the spread sheet.you must take the ticks out of the blank lines on the
preview screen.Then all is o.k. DONT LEAVE BLANK LINES WHEN MERGING!

That is unusual. I don't suppose you have something like an INCLUDETEXT
field that is including the mail merge main document?

the scroll


?

Are you merging directly to a printer, or to an output document? What type
of merge (I assume it is Letters/Form Letters)? Which version of Word?

What if you create a new, very simple mail merge document that uses the same
data?
